Easiest to Install Trailer Hitch for a 2019 Subaru Crosstrek
Question:
Hi, I am looking for a recommendation for a trailer hitch for my 2019 Subaru Crosstrek that I can install myself without any drilling or welding. The purpose will be for a bike rack. Thank you!

The trailer hitch options for a 2019 Subaru Crosstrek all install pretty much the same, no welding or drilling required. It will take a bit of time for the fishwire portion of the install but it's all bolt-on and easy enough pretty much anyone with little to no mechanical experience can do it. The best part is, we have videos that will walk you through each step. I recommend the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver part # e98912 which has a hidden design for the best overall aesthetics, a matte finish which will blend in better with the underbody paneling on the vehicle, and a class III rating for use with all your favorite accessories. I have attached an install video below.
If you're looking for a bike rack, I recommend the Thule Hitching Post Pro part # TH934XTR which will work great with the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver on your 2019 Subaru Crosstrek.
