When we installed the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch # 75673 on a 2016 Subaru Outback, we found that the hitch pin hole to rear bumper clearance measurement was 5-1/2 inches. This can vary on different vehicles due to different size bumpers and mounting hole locations. I recommend measuring your vehicle to confirm the clearance you will need to clear the bumper. I have attached a help article on how to find this measurement.

Thanks for the picture! No, it won't. Since that rack is on the back tire on your Verve 2 E-Bike you shouldn't have any issues using the Kuat Transfer V2 Bike Rack item # KU84FR. You will want to stop the clamp short of that fender on your rear wheel. view full answer...

Without knowing what Hollywood Racks bike rack you have it would be hard for me to say if this would be enough clearance. What you can do is measure from the center of the pin hole on the rack out to the nearest upright portion of the rack/wheel hoop. If that distance is more than... view full answer...
Both the # PK54520 Straight Mount and # 9506P Perpendicular Mount Pollak 20 amp circuit breaker are 11/16" long. They have a distance of 1-9/16"center to center for the mounting holes, so as long as you have that amount of space you would be able to mount either breaker.
I've added links to video reviews of both circuit breakers for you to take a look at. view full answer...
I do have a way that you can determine the clearance with Curt trailer hitch # C12270 installed. Take a look at the instructions I have linked for you. Find the mounting point on the vehicle for the forward most attachment point (towards the front of the vehicle).
Measure from this mounting hole straight back towards the rear of the vehicle 18-1/4 inches. This is where the face of the receiver will be. If you measure from that point to the distance required to clear the rear bumper, you... view full answer...

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...

We have not installed the Curt hitch # 13390 on a 2012 model. But on a 2011 it measured 3-1/2 inches, on a 2014 it was 3 inches, on a 2015 it was 3-1/2 inches, and on a 2010 it was 4 inches. Based on all of this information it would seem the Curt hitch would be the best option. The only catch is that Curt says you... view full answer...
Yes, they are if your 2017 Subaru Outback has a 2" hitch installed like item # e42TR. The Flint Hill Goods 30" x 50" Wheelchair Carrier item # FHG77ZR requires your vehicle to have a 2" receiver. It looks like the carrier weighs 80 lbs and your Permobil M3 weighs just below 400 lbs so you'll need a hitch with a tongue weight capacity of 500 lbs.

Any time you are dealing with a weight capacity you are always limited by your lowest rated component. Trailer hitch manufacturers test the strengths of their products separate from the vehicles which is why the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13206 has a 600 lb TW capacity that is well over the TW capacity of your 2016 Subaru Outback Wagon.
Since your Outback Wagon has a lower TW capacity of 200 lbs that is what you will be limited by and what you need to stay under to safely use the trailer... 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.
