This fully welded trailer hitch receiver bolts onto your vehicle's frame with no welding required. Powder coated steel is sturdy and corrosion resistant.by: Michael02/07/2023
Followed the video for the 2012 outback for my 2014 outback and the install went smooth. About 90-120 minutes. Only hang up was you need to trim more around the hitch than you would think you will, but I'd rather cut 1 inch at a time than too much

I chose this hitch due to it being fairly unnoticeable and allowing little to hang down to reduce potential ground clearance. (I live in Western NC on a mountain dirt road and we do get deep snow occasionally). If anything is going to drag, it will only be the small square vs some other styles that hang down much of the full width between the wheels.
Straightforward installation with great instructions. If there was a difficulty, it was trying to be careful removing and installing the bumper cover. I asked my wife to help during those steps. I broke one snap point off along the most extreme curvature, but the others surrounding it seem to be doing a good job of disguising it. I can't tell I broke one.
In a year, I've only used it once for pulling a trailer for over 300 miles. I did stop at the nearest Harbor Freight along the way to buy an anti-rattle device. I'd used the same drawbar, hitch pin, and trailer on my truck in the past and wasn't bothered by any noise, but perhaps the dynamics of the connection to my Outback created an acoustic concert hall for rattling noise. The device took care of the noise. I have complete confidence this hitch will last as long or longer than the vehicle.
Included pics of installed hitch and drawbar, pin and anti-rattle device. Would have included pic of trailer, but maybe there's a limit. It was a 5x10' open trailer with wood floor and expanded metal gate/ramp.

2014 SubaruOutback Wagon
The hitch is awesome and bolted up perfectly to my 2014 Outback. Took me 3 hours to install it solo. The second video on the product page is very helpful. I watched it about 5 times before starting. I also recommend buying a bag of new push fasteners in advance of starting the installation. The cut out in the bumper cover to clear the hitch ended up being 3 5/8" wide x 5 1/4" deep, and dead center on the center mounting tab hole. That less than 1/4" gap all around. Check the fit over the receiver and the bottom push fasteners before completely re-installing the bumper cover. Awesome product!

It has worked out great, and exceeded my expectations. My Kuat bike rack is on most all the time, and I use it 2-3 times per week.

2017 SubaruOutback Wagon
Fit well on my 2017 Subaru Outback. Arrived in a hefty box without any issues. The only concern is the length of the bolts in my bumper. I cannot change them since they are welded in, so the outermost nut currently sits one thread from the end of the bolt with the hitch and bumper bolted in (see pic). Also ended up cutting the hole in the plastic longer in depth and shorter in width than what was specified.

2019 SubaruOutback Wagon
Not installed yet but arrived fine, in spite of receiver part protruding from hole it made in box. Zip-tying through mounting holes and side of carton could keep it from shifting. Looking foward to the DIY with the custom design to fit our 2019 Outback, with only minimal modification to the bumper cover. Will save $300+ over four previous hired installions on former vehicles. Thanks etrailer!!

Im extremely satisfied with everything the installation, towing performance, and appearance! The best advice is to read all of the reviews. Youll find one that describes how to accurately measure for the cut-out on your 2019, or similiar Outback bumper facia to make it clean and precise. Then, you can even just cut 2 slots to accommodate the hitch. Also, its true: the added bulk of the bolted-on bracket WILL PREVENT the bumper to go back on without removing some of the material on the underneath foam piece. All that is needed is locate the slight rounded raised area that is maybe an inch wide and runs the length of it. Simply sand off this raised bump with a rotary tool so that the whole side facing the bumper is level. Some will say to throw the foam piece out. NO! It adds integrity to the bumper. The bumper will then go right back on with no fuss. Love the results of nothing showing on the vehicle but the 2 receiver part. Theres NO visible bracket that invariably turns to rust after a few years of salted road baths. Hopefully Curt uses a better finish than Hidden Hitch, which was anything but hidden by the way, on our former Toyota Sienna.

Quality product and plenty of videos the explain how to install. When making cutout on bottom of bumper, directions help but may have to make slightly bigger. Used it with bike carrier and towed a small boat (minimal distance). With Subaru Outback (2016) - it fits but since it takes up more space behind bumper - requires the foam insert to be removed or trimmed down so that bumper can reattach to body. When installing, be careful with body/bumper clips - easy to break! Use the right tools.

Arrived well packed and in good condition. Installation was not as difficult as I feared, mostly due to the excellent video showing the entire process for my vehicle (2017 Subaru Outback). Overall, I’m very pleased with ease of ordering, value pricing, delivery, and installation instructions. Thank you!

2018 SubaruOutback Wagon
This was an easy install and was super glad I made the decision to install myself and go with this particular one. It’s flush underneath and looks sleek. I use it with two e-bikes and it’s worked perfectly. Also used it to tow small trailers. Excellent product.
by: Adam04/29/2024
The hitch came quickly and well-packaged. It fit my 2017 Outback perfectly without too much work. Recommend a second pair of hands for the installation as it comes in handy. Hitch shows good workmanship, and is exactly what I expected.
by: El Decano04/25/2024
2018 SubaruOutback Wagon
Exactly as expected and quality product as usual from Curt. First off time installing a hitch and instructions were spot on. Triple check your clips. My 2018 Outback Limited had a black wheel well trim that needed loosened - removed a rear screw and one metal clip that released with a flathead screwdriver, intuitive enough to figure out if you’re willing to tackle the rest of the install.
Overall probably 90 minutes start to finish.

The spare wheel well protrudes out and the cross bar hits the wheel well. Unable to install.

It is unusual that it would hit the wheel well. Would you be able to send a picture? I would like to reach out to the manufacturer about the fit.
by: Jon12/29/2023
Not well packaged. The hitch was moving significantly inside the box and was damaged on arrival.

Unfortunately it can happen where the rubbing in a box can cause the imperfections in the coating. I recommend touching up those areas with a rust resistant paint like Rustoleum. I will have our Customer Service team reach out to you.

2017 SubaruOutback Wagon
After watching the installation videos, I was able to install the Curt trailer hitch without any problems on our 2017 Subaru Outback. Installation was easy and It works great for towing anything the car can handle. It's maybe a bit over-kill for this car, but that's the way I like it. We can now tow a small trailer for making dump runs once a month and have a very solid hitch for mounting our bike and luggage racks with no worries.
by: Nathaniel04/27/2023
Hitch went on well, and required minimal trimming (as expected). I've used it to tow a small teardrop trailer (2k+ lbs) about 8-10 times so far in 12 months. No issues at all.

The hitch worked well, the one side of the hitch was hanging out through the box when it arrived, probably the shipping company. (I wonder if they handle their stuff in the same manor)

2016 SubaruOutback Wagon
The product arrived in a timely fashion and it was professionally boxed. I inspected the hitch and it appears to be welded really well and is strong. No issues with the look either as there was no damage to it at all.
Though I have not installed it yet, the instructions are clear and there are plenty of online videos to help, so if there is anything wrong with the installation that should be on me. Overall, impressed with the product and will update if there are any major issues.

Lightening fast shipping, even on a holiday weekend. Hitch looks great, have not installed yet but very pleased so far. Thank you
by: Armand 01/14/2024
Installation instructions were crystal clear. Highly recommend the hidden hitch bar. Make sure you have an extra long socket prior to starting the installation, because an extension won't cut it! 1 year in and it still works great.
by: David11/11/2023
2019 SubaruOutback Wagon
Pretty easy to install. Wish the directions were a bit more clear on tools I would need, since you either need to remove the wheel or have some specialty screwdrivers. Luckily I had what I needed. Watch the video first, read the direction, then watch the video again and you’ll be good to go.

2017 SubaruOutback Wagon
Easy install with video instructions on '17 Outback! I did this myself in about two hours, taking my time. A helper would have been really beneficial at times. As others noted, I opted to not hammer up the bumper clip bracket so I could re-use it. I filed off a corner of the bracket, but may not have needed to. Then I simply cut around the flanges of the hitch (took a few test fits to get it right). Take your time and cut less than you think - you can always cut more, but you can't put it back! I kept the foam pad in (some throw it out), the bumper gets pushed out by the thickness of the receiver plate, and it took a little finagling to get the bumper cover back on, but worth it in the end.
etrailer shipping and packing was great!

Still very pleased after one year of use!
by: Richard07/08/2020
Hitched arrived fast and was in good condition.
Two issues were encountered. The notch specified for the cover is too big. I undercut mine and tested the fit. i ended up with 3 1/2 x 5 inches and DID NOT curt through the center push pin hole. The push pin fit correctly after install and there was about 3/16 inch clearance around the receiver frame.
The bigger issue involved the internal bumper that sits on the bumper frame. There is no compensation for adding the hitch. The hitch pushes the internal bumper to the rear by the thickness of the hitch mounting surface. Doesn't seem like much but it has a MAJOR impact on seating the cosmetic bumper later.
I ended up fabricating my own frame brace bumper using a shop floor tile. This reduced the chance of a cover crack during in a minor collision. You could leave the factory bumper off and take the risk. The floor tile was half the thickness of the factory internal bumper.
The cosmetic cover should not require big forces to re-seat. If it does something is WRONG. Proper seating only requires medium finger pressure producing audible clicks along the quarter panel. If there is any misalignment it will not seat correctly.

2017 SubaruOutback Wagon
Just installed yesterday, haven't had a chance to try out yet, but quality is there, feels solid. Install was straightforward as others have shared, similar hangups with foam on bumper being too thick making reinstall of fascia difficult. As my car is three years old, removing bumper fasteners was a bit precarious (be very careful or have spares available). Bumper bar had also seized to bolts a bit on one side but after removing all nuts and a little wiggling it came free easy. I just held the bumper up to figure out cut, had to cut a little deeper as some stated in order to fit. With this particular hitch you could get away with cutting two narrow slits that will fit around hitch since it is not one solid bar where it elbows but two plates. Overall very happy with this purchase, can't wait to put it to use!

2012 SubaruOutback Wagon
Fits and works great for my 2012 Subaru Outback. I hauled a Honda Ruckus with no issues. I haven't tested heavier loads like a small trailer yet, but for my use, there are no problems.
by: Caleb 09/09/2023
Installed pretty well, hardest part was trimming a portion of the bumper for clearance. Only thing i noticed was the hitch inside the receiver has a tad bit of room to move with a trailer being pulled causing noise from the gap. I may try wrapping the hitch with tape to take the gap up. It may be because the hitch sits low on the bumper which causes this not exactly the hitch's design...overall a good hitch system. vehicle connector works great and plugged in easily

- Recommended Hitch for a 2018 Subaru OutbackThe best hitch for your 2018 Subaru Outback is going to be the etrailer Hitch item # e42TR. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your Subaru with included hardware. This is a class III hitch with a 2" receiver. It has a 400 lbs maximum tongue weight so you will have plenty of capacity for a bike rack. I really like the etrailer hitch because of its hidden design. The crosstube will install behind the bumper leaving only the 2" receiver visible. This not only looks better but it also helps...

Typically, when a vehicle manufacturer does this, it's because the under body structure of the vehicle could be compromised by the leverage that the weight distribution system would apply to the hitch and it's mounting points to the vehicle.

All 3 options have the same basic design and the weight ratings exceed that of your '19 Outback Wagon so it really boils down to pricing and construction.
