If you want to take your bikes to the trail with your family this summer, you have plenty of options. You can carry your bikes on top of your car with a roof rack, but that bulky rack can increase drag on your ride. You can use a trunk rack, but that's a pain to mount and it can scratch your car's paint. Or you can install a hitch on your ride and use a hitch-mounted bike rack to carry your bikes.
This rack receiver is designed to act as a mounting point for your hitch bike rack or cargo carrier. Just slide the shank of your carrier into the receiver for use, and when you're done you can not only remove the carrier, but the receiver as well, leaving your vehicle looking clean and unmodified.
Completely Hidden Design
Nothing can ruin the clean, stylish look of your vehicle like a giant piece of metal bolted beneath its bumper. Luckily, with the Stealth Hitches rack receiver, you never have to worry about messing up your vehicle's lines.
This hitch installs behind your bumper, keeping the cross tube concealed and leaving only the hitch receiver visible. Even better, the receiver can be easily removed from the cross tube when it's not in use so that you won't see any trace of the hitch. This means that you can retain that clean, from-the-factory look for your ride, while still being able to carry your bikes and gear on the next family road trip.
Simple Set Up
The receiver can be attached or detached in seconds with no tools required. To insert the receiver, simply pop the base up into the stainless steel block at the center of the hitch until it automatically latches in place.
Be sure to then press the lock on the side of the block to fully secure the receiver. When you're finished carrying your bikes or cargo, use the included key to unlock the latch. Then turn the handle on the block clockwise and remove the receiver. You can stow the receiver in a safe place, like your vehicle's rear cargo area, or you can use a convenient carrying case (391CASER - sold separately).
And when you're not using the receiver attachment, the included hitch plug covers the center block's opening to protect the hitch's body from dirt and debris.

The stealth trailer has been really a pleasure to use. A+ build quality, fairly easy to install if you watch a couple of videos and have the proper tools. The package is as described and it’s there when you need it and gone and out of sight when you don’t. Worth every Penny.

Love the hitch! Had a problem with the rubber protective plug falling out of the stainless block in sub zero temperature. Fortunately, it fell out while parked in my driveway, so I didn’t lose it. Otherwise, I am very happy with this premium hitch.

- Installation Time for a Stealth Hitch on a 2020 Subaru CrosstrekAccording the the installation guide, which I have linked for you, this should take approximately two hours to install. Please note that this hitch is only intended for hitch-mounted accessories such as bike racks, and not for towing. If you are interested in using this hitch for towing, then we offer the required towing kit, part # 391CONVOC5. If you were wanting to use the hitch to transport bikes, then be sure to take a look at our catalog of 2-inch racks. I've linked this as well.
view full answer... - Recommended Trailer Hitch Options for 2020 Subaru CrosstrekThe trailer hitches are finished with a durable powder coating. The Curt and Draw-Tite hitches are welded together from tube stock and flat steel that are very similar. In my opinion, Curt does a tiny bit better job with their powder coat application. When given the choice, I always recommend using a Class Ill hitch because there's a much greater selection of hitch mounted accessories available for the more common 2 inch Class III receiver. Although the Curt # C13382 and Draw-Tite # 76209...
view full answer... - Availability of Trailer Hitch for 2020 Subaru Crosstrek Yes, for your 2020 Subaru CrossTrek there are a couple hitch assemblies available from Stealth that are confirmed to fit and will work great. If you only plan on using the hitch for accessories like a bike rack or cargo carrier, the Stealth # 391SUCT18 will work perfectly. If you think you will tow a trailer from time to time as well you will want the Stealth # 391SUCT18T instead, which also includes the needed ball mount component AND wiring for towing. These are extremely durable...

- Why Is The Stealth Hitch 391SUCT18 Not Verified For The 2022 Subaru CrosstrekHello Jim. The Stealth Hitch # 391SUCT18 is not verified for the 2022 Subaru Crosstrek because the manufacturer specifies it will only for the 2018-2021 Crosstrek models. Unfortunately, Stealth Hitch does not make a hitch for the 2022 - present Subaru Crosstrek. We actually had a few reps from Stealth Hitch here a couple weeks ago and I brought this up. We get a lot of Subaru owners asking us about stealth hitches and I was curious why they stopped making hitches for a lot of Subaru models...
view full answer... - Best Bike Rack And Trailer Hitch Receiver For Carrying 2 Electric Bikes On A 2021 Subaru CrosstrekSince your 2021 Subaru Crosstrek has a max tongue weight of 200lbs you do not want to exceed that. If you came up with 190lbs by adding your 2 electric bikes and a bike rack together, then you will be fine since it is still under the 200lb weight capacity of your vehicle. The Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver 2" # 391SUCT18 is confirmed to fit all models of the 2021 Crosstrek and has a high enough weight capacity to suit your needs. Typically, frame-mount is a more secure and safer...
view full answer... - Recommended Hidden Hitch for 2021 Subaru Crosstrek HybridThe only concealed crosstube/hidden trailer hitch options for a 2021 Subaru Crosstrek Hybrid are the EcoHitch Stealth Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 306-X7365 and Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver part # 391SUCT18. These options both have a concealed crosstube as well as removable receiver tube. The main differences is that the Stealth uses a hand knob and the EcoHitch requires a tool.
view full answer... - Hitch Recommendation For 2020 Subaru CrosstrekYes there is a hitch fit for you to carry your bike rack with Stealth Hitches Rack Receiver part # 391SUCT18 for the 2020 Subaru Crosstrek. The Stealth Hitch is a completely hidden design because of it's removable receiver tube. When the hitch is not in use you can easily remove the receiver tube, when it's time to carry the bike rack reinsert it into the quick latching mechanism and it locks in. The latching mechanism is a tight connection so you won't experience any rattling like with...

- Best Looking Hitch on the 2020 Subaru XV CrosstrekI really like the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Matte Black Finish - Class III - 2" part # e98912 .

- Concealed Trailer Hitch For 2020 Subaru Crosstrek To Carry Bike RackThe only concealed cross tube option at this time for the 2020 Subaru Crosstrek is the Stealth Hitches Rack Receiver part # 391SUCT18 which is a completely hidden option when not in use for a nice OEM look. The receiver latches into a stainless steel latching mechanism under the bumper and can be removed when not in use. The connection does not require bolts like other hidden hitches and it's a snug fit to eliminate the rattling noise you may experience with other brands. This hitch design...
view full answer... - Is the Stealth Hitch for a 2020 Subaru Crosstrek Completely HiddenYes, when you do not have the receiver portion of the Stealth Hitches Rack Receiver # 391SUCT18 on your 2020 Subaru Crosstrek, the hitch is totally hidden - visually it's the same as not having a hitch on at all. Keep in mind there are a couple of different options for a Stealth Hitch for your 2020 Subaru Crosstrek depending on if you just want a receiver for accessory use or also want to tow; which requires a separate kit. Here are the options for your 2020 Subaru Crosstrek: - For Bike...

This means that it might fit, but the manufacturer hasn't been able to test it on your vehicle so there's no way to know for sure. The only hitch available that has been confirmed to fit your hybrid model is the Draw-Tite # 76209. This a Class III hitch with a 2" receiver and has a gross towing weight capacity of 4,500...

view full answer... - Is Draw-Tite Hitch Hidden Like Curt Hitch for 2020 Subaru CrosstrekThe hidden design of the Curt hitch # C12184 is very appealing and since Draw-Tite actually doesn't have a hidden crosstube design for your 2020 Subaru Crosstrek I definitely recommend going with it over the Draw-Tite # 36644. Curt has a great reputation when it comes to trailer hitches and we have actually found that their hitches tend to have better welds and a thicker powder coat which combined means they hold up better than the Draw-Tite versions. I would like to point out that the...
