The etrailer.com Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Matte Black Finish - Class III - 2" # E98847 will not increase the towing or tongue weight capacities of your vehicle but it can limit it. Trailer hitches are not rated for weight capacities on each vehicle but rather on the hitch itself as many hitches will fit different models and different years.
For your 2016 Subaru Outback 3.6R the manufacturer lists your towing capacity at 3,000 lbs with a tongue weight capacity of 200 lbs.... view full answer...
The towing capacity of the 2022 Subaru Outback depends on which engine the vehicle's equipped with. 2.4L equipped vehicles will have a maximum towing capacity of 3500 lbs/350 lb tongue weight. 2.5L equipped vehicles will have a lower capacity, at 2700 lbs towing/270 lbs tongue weight.
The capacity of the Curt 13494 Class III hitch which we offer as # C67JR is 4000 lb towing/600 lbs tongue weight, which is actually greater than the capacity of the vehicle.

When we installed the Draw Tite hitch # 76209 on a similar Impreza as your 2019 model we found that the ground clearance was right at 8 inches. The EcoHitch part # 306-X7350 would actually have the best ground clearance as only the hitch opening hangs below the rear bumper. This allows for better ground clearance around corners where the rear of the vehicle would be angled and also where most ground clearance issues happen. view full answer...
You are definitely on the right track with your research and findings. If your 2018 Subaru Outback Wagon is listed for 200 lbs TW then even if you use a trailer hitch with a higher TW capacity, like the Draw-Tite # 76227 with a 600 lb TW, you are limited by the least rated component which would be your Outback Wagon at 200 lbs TW.
To determine how much cargo you can carry in a carrier like part # C18113 you need to subtract the weight of the carrier itself. For this example the carrier... view full answer...

The tube diameters on the Pro Series 6 Inch, Detachable Caster w/ Pin, part # PS1400750340, is 2 inch inside diameter and 2-1/4 inch outside diameter. The down tube on a 2 inch jack will fit inside the 2 inch tube on the caster.
You will need to make sure that the jack will have the hole in the down tube for the pin on the caster to go through and hold the caster to the jack. Also, both of the casters have a weight capacity of 1,200 lbs. If these casters are used on a jack with a higher... view full answer...
I went out to the warehouse and pulled a Hopkins Backup Sensor System - Audible Alert - License Bracket Mount, # HM60100VA, and measured it. It is 5-15/16 inches tall and 13-1/8 inches wide. view full answer...
The Inno Wedge 660 Rooftop Cargo Box - 11 cu ft - Gloss Black # INBRM660BK will sit approximately 9-1/2 inches above your factory roof rails on your 2014 Subaru XV Crosstrek due the shape of the bottom of the cargo box. The box itself has dimensions of 80" long x 33" wide x 11" tall, but the recess in the bottom for the crossbars will give you about a 1-1/2 inch shorter dimension for total height when mounted because they account for a crossbar height.

The guidance you received about not using a 2-inch hitch on your Outback would apply if you were towing a trailer. Most 4-cylinder vehicles are generally not as towing-friendly as those with a V6 or larger engine. While this caution makes sense for towing applications it dos not really apply for use with a hitch-mounted bike rack.
You are correct that Subaru's OEM hitches are not great matches for accessory applications like bike or cargo carrier use, and for the reason you stated, and... view full answer...
The EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch # 306-X7350 weighs 36 lbs. It features a bolt-on installation, alloy construction, and a limited lifetime warranty.
If you plan on towing you will also need the # C56367 for wiring. This plugs into the connection points behind your tail lights and will give you a 4-way to power your trailer's signal lights. If you need a ball mount as well, you can use the etrailer Ball Mount Kit # 989900. view full answer...
You are correct. You will always be limited by a total setup's weakest component. In the case of installing the Draw-Tite Class III trailer hitch # 75673 on your 2017 Subaru Outback Wagon, you will have to follow the 200 pound tongue weight capacity of the vehicle, even though the hitch itself can support much more.
Keep in mind that there is still an advantage to getting a Class III over a Class II trailer hitch for your Outback Wagon as there are far more available hitch-mounted accessories... view full answer...
For the Thule Motion XT Alpine Rooftop Cargo Box - 16 cu ft - Black # TH629706 the interior dimensions are 84-1/2" long x 33" wide x 11-1/4" tall. Since the height appears to be an issue for garage door clearance, the distance from the top of your crossbar to the top of the box is 12-1/4 inches.
I was able to confirm the interior height of 11-1/4 inches is from the bottom of the ridge on the underside, so from the top of the ridge the measurement is 10-3/4 inches. So you will have 3/4... view full answer...
I reached out to Yakima and they told me that the Yakima ShowDown Kayak or SUP Carrier and Lift Assist with Tie-Downs # Y04081 will be just 9 inches above the roof rack on your 2020 Subaru Outback Touring. If you take a look at the accompanying photo you can see that demonstrated. You will not need anything else to install the ShowDown on your Outback, though you can use Lock Cores # Y07202 to lock it.

Since the CURT Trailer Hitch # C12270 will sit below the rear bumper of your 2000 Subaru Outback Wagon it will reduce the ground clearance on your vehicle.
However, the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch # 36284 will give you a little more ground clearance as the area that goes around the exhaust tip will go above the tip on the Draw-Tite hitch. Whereas, it goes below the tip on the CURT hitch.
Check out the picture I attached that shows both of these hitches installed on a similar vehicle as yours.
