Hey Chris, welcome back! There isn't going to be a Draw-Tite hitch available for your 2003 Toyota Landcruiser but I have another option. Their parent company filed for bankruptcy and is going through a massive fraud investigation as well so they're no longer making hitches.

To add a hitch to your 2003 Toyota Landcruiser, I recommend the Curt item # 13443. This is a custom fit class III hitch with a 5,000 lbs towing capacity and a 500 lbs maximum tongue weight. These capacities can be increased to 6,000 lbs and 600 lbs with the use of a weight distribution system.

The Curt Hitch item # 13443 comes with all hardware necessary to complete the installation. There is no drilling required for the installation.

What do you plan on using your new hitch for?
