In order to flat-tow your 2016 Subaru Crosstrek with all four wheels down you will need a base plate kit, tow bar, supplemental braking system, wiring harness, safety cables, and a possible high-low adapter. You may also need a few more items depending on which of the major components above that you select. Therefore, you do have most of the major components listed but there will still be a few more things needed to complete your setup.
For a base plate kit I recommend the Roadmaster... view full answer...
I recommend using a Master Lock Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock and Coupler Lock Set # 3794DAT for the CE Smith Multi Sport Plus Boat and Kayak Trailer # CE48870. With this set you get a coupler lock for when you are towing the trailer as well as a storage lock when you park the trailer. Also included are 2 receiver pins, one for a 1-1/4" receiver and the other for a 2" receiver. A separate lock will secure the receiver pin to your vehicle.
This set will ensure that your trailer is secured... view full answer...
The best looking trailer hitch that fits your 2018 Subaru Crosstrek is the EcoHitch, part # 306-X7365. The cross tube is concealed behind the rear bumper and the receiver tube is visible underneath. Additionally, the receiver tube can be removed when you're not using it so nothing is visible at all. With that being said this might be a little fancier than what you're looking for. And by "fancier" I mean expensive.
The next best looking option is the Curt, part # C13382. It still has... view full answer...
In regards to the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C13382 which is a fit for a 2018 Subaru Crosstrek, the distance from the ground to the top inside edge of the receiver tube opening is 15". Therefore, if the distance from the ground to the bottom of the trailer coupler (while level) is 21" then you need a ball mount with a 6" rise. The Curt Ball Mount for 2" Hitches part # C45100 will work for this but you also need a Pin/Clip part # C21500 and Hitch Ball part # 40038. view full answer...
The most hidden trailer hitch option we have for your 2019 Subaru Crosstrek is the EcoHitch part # 306-X7365. When in use only the hitch opening hangs below the rear bumper, but when you aren't towing you can easily remove the hitch opening as it unbolts from the crosstube and you'd have a totally hidden hitch setup!
I attached a picture that illustrates this as well as a link to an install video for more info too.
If you need trailer wiring too the Tekonsha kit part # 118467 is what... view full answer...
The install of the Curt hitch part # C13382 on a 2019 Subaru Crosstrek does not require drilling but it does required you to enlarge the access hole that you sent us a picture of.
I attached a picture of the step in the install instructions that covers this. A dremol tool would be the most ideal tool to accomplish this but a file could work as well. view full answer...
Thule doesn't currently have any trunk mounted bike racks compatible with 2018 and 2019 models of Subaru Crosstrek so I don't recommend # TH88VR. They determined a fit issue.
My recommendation for a similar rack that is a confirmed fit is the Yakima HangOut 2 Bike Rack - Trunk Mount - Adjustable Arms # Y02637. This is a great option if you won't have a spoiler.
If you have a spoiler, I recommend the hitch # e98912 and a bike rack like the Thule Camber # TH9058. This is by-far the... view full answer...
The 1-1/4" receivers we have listed for the 2017 Subaru Crosstrek are Class I hitches. As such, the Saris SuperClamp EX, part # SA4025F, will not work because it is compatible with Class II and above.
If you'd like to use this bike rack, I suggest using a higher class hitch like the Curt Class III, part # C13135. It has a 2" receiver, so it will be able to work with the SuperClamp EX.
Alternatively, you could use the Thule EasyFold XT, part # TH903202, with your 1-1/4" hitch. It supports... view full answer...
The Trailer Valet XL trailer movers like the part # TVXL25 for if the ball size of the coupler is 2-5/16 inch or part # TVXL2 for if you have a 2 inch ball can be used in gravel. We've found that the best result is if the gravel is packed pretty tightly and the area is level.
I attached a review video for more info on this as well. view full answer...
The weight capacity of roof racks like the Rhino Rack Vortex # RRVA118B-2 and # RRSX100 you have on your 2020 Subaru Crosstrek is a very safe and conservative figure. So if you were at 142 lbs with the tent and the Rhino Rack Pioneer Platform part # RR42114BF you would definitely be safe. view full answer...

I recommend going with the 2" EcoHitch # 306-X7365 which is a confirmed fit for your vehicle. It allows you to use a wider variety of ball mount options as well as accessories like a bike rack.
I have attached an installation video that you can check out. The installation is identical for both trailer hitches so it is a good reference no matter which way you go.
If you don't already have a bike rack then I highly recommend the Kuat NV 2.0 Base # BA22B because it combines a great look... view full answer...
For your 2019 Subaru Crosstrek with the tire size 225/55-18 the Titan chains part # TC1555 are the correct size and are Class S compatible which means the clearance required to install them is not much. That said since your owners manual says no chains at all the better option is the K-Summits part # th02230k45 as they do not drape over the inside of the tire at all which means they don't require any clearance. This is the area where most tire chain clearance issues arise. This would be... view full answer...
The best hitch for your 2018 Subaru Crosstrek for carrying a bike rack is the Draw Tite part # 76209 as it does not require using a stabilizer strap with a non-supported load like a bike rack like the Curt hitch does. But to your specific question on stability there isn't a difference between the hitches. It's the hitch accessory's ability to prevent movement/rattle that prevents the movement. The hitches in that regard are perfectly equal.
With your T2 one trick is take and move the... view full answer...
For your 2022 Subaru Crosstrek, I recommend the etrailer.com # e98912. This American made hitch is rated up to 3,500 pounds towing and 525 pounds of tongue weight. You will need to confirm your capacities in your owner's manual though, as this may be higher than your vehicle is rated. However, with the 2" receiver, this will have absolutely no issue carrying the 19x60 Curt Cargo Carrier # C18100.
With the Curt # C18100 being as light as it is. you should be able to carry a good amount... view full answer...
All of the ski/snowboard solutions we offer for the roofs of vehicles like your 2021 Subaru Crosstrek do require crossbars that run from left to right. This includes the Thule # TH732508 that you referenced.
So since you have raised side rails an easy roof rack solution is the Rhino Rack roof rack part numbers # RRVA118B-2 and # RRSX100 which is a confirmed fit and also is a high quality roof rack at a better price than other racks that rival its quality. view full answer...
The best option we offer for you to carry a dirt bike on the back of your 2021 Subaru Crosstrek would involve replacing the factory 1-1/4" hitch with a larger 2" hitch. I recommend the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver part # e98912 which is a bolt-on fit with no drilling required. This hitch has a 350 lb weight capacity but please keep in mind that if the vehicle is rated lower that's the one you'll need to go by. That info can be found in your owner's manual.

The Roadmaster base plate kit part # 52922-1A is a great choice for a base plate kit for your 2016 Subaru Crosstrek. Roadmaster makes high quality flat towing products that are easy to use and install.
In addition to the base plates, you will also need a compatible tow bar, safety cables, lighting, and supplemental braking to flat tow your vehicle. The most popular compatible tow bar is the Falcon 2, # RM-520. For safety cables you can use # RM-643. The coiled design helps keep the cables... view full answer...
