Expert Answers about Subaru Crosstrek


  • Appearance of etrailer Brand e98912 Class III Trailer Hitch Installed on 2020 Subaru Crosstrek
  • I've provided a photo of the etrailer # e98912 Class III hitch installed on a 2019 Subaru Crosstrek. There were no appreciable changes to the rear of the Crosstrek for the 2020 model year, so the hitch would appear the same as shown on the 2019. The hitch is a concealed design, with only the receiver tube and safety chain hoops visible. Many find this preferable to something like the Draw-Tite Class III, part # 76209 which would be completely visible. I've provided a photo showing how both...

  • How Does etrailer Hitch Look Installed on 2019 Subaru Crosstrek
  • I have added some photos of how the etrailer.com Trailer Hitch # E98912 will look when installed on a 2019 Subaru Crosstrek. Though these are photos of the Curt Trailer Hitch # C13382, the two hitches are the same except for the etrailer hitch has a matte black finish compared to the gloss black finish of the Curt hitch, which basically just means the etrailer hitch has a bit more of a rugged look and isn't quite as prone to scratches. As you can see by the photos, the etrailer.com Trailer...

  • How does the etrailer e98912 Hitch Look on a 2022 Subaru Crosstrek
  • We have not had the chance to install and photograph the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e98912 on the 2022 Subaru Crosstrek yet. I have attached a photo of the # e98912 hitch installed on a 2021 Subaru Crosstrek. There were not any major changes between the 2021 and 2022 model year, so you can expect the # e98912 hitch to have a similar appearance on your 2022 Crosstrek as it did on the 2021 Crosstrek. To round out a towing package if you will be doing any towing you can pick up the...

  • Base Plate Kit For Toyota Tacoma
  • The Blue Ox Base Plate Kit, # BX3622 that you linked to is for a Subaru not a Toyota but there is the Blue Ox Base Plate Kit, # BX3795 that is fit guided for the Toyota. While per the manufacturer, you should not attempt to flat tow a Toyota Tacoma, anything can be made to flat tow if you make enough changes. This is not the norm, and actually only very small percentage of people will go to this much trouble and expense to make a vehicle able to be flat towed, some do. The Toyota...

  • Visible Versus Concealed Hitch Appearance on 2021 Subaru Crosstrek
  • When installed on a 2021 Subaru Crosstrek, the Draw-Tite # 76209 will be fully visible from the rear of the vehicle, while the only visible part of the Curt # C13382 will be the receiver tube and the safety chain loops. Take a look at the provided photo which shows a side by side view. Most folks (myself included) prefer the more concealed look of the Curt. If you'll be towing with the hitch, you'll also need a trailer wiring harness like # 118467, a ball mount like # 2753 and # 40038...

  • Can Thule Lock Set Qty. 6 Be Ordered with Specific Key Number
  • The Thule One-Key System Lock Cylinders part # TH450600 come with a random key number. It cannot be ordered with a specific key number. Therefore, you can either replace all the locks or replace them individually using the Replacement Lock Cylinder for Thule Racks and Carriers - N150 part # THLOCKN150 and Replacement Key for Thule Racks and Carriers - N150 part # THKEYN150. I know this isn't what you wanted but it's all Thule offers unfortunately, it has nothing to do with us.

  • What Steps Should You Take To Prevent Rust After Enlarging A Hole To Install A Hitch
  • When enlarging to holes in a frame or even on a hitch like the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13382 we'll either spray some clear or black paint over the exposed metal or use a clear or black paint marker to help prevent rust and corrosion. I'll typically also use a file to clear off any burrs there might be from enlarging the hole with a drill bit before painting it.

  • What Does the etrailer Hitch for a 2022 Subaru Crosstrek Look Like When Installed
  • We have not had the opportunity to photograph the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e98912 on the 2022 model of the Subaru Crosstrek yet. But there were not any notable changes to the Subaru Crosstrek's appearance from the 2021 to 2022 model year. Therefore, the hitch would look just like it did on the 2021 model.

  • 2020 Subaru Crosstrek Hitch Removal
  • Taking the spacer and the carriage bolt out will take some finesse. It will be the exact same way you installed the hitch # C13382, just in reverse. Having a magnet tool may help as well. Pretty much what you will have to do is get the spacer and the carriage bolt out in two separate pieces. If need be, you could make the hole a little bit wider to help get the spacer out. I've included a video to show you how it installed so you can get an idea of the process you have to do in reverse.

  • Is There a Locking Threaded Hitch Pin Available to Holt the Receiver in the EcoHitch 306-X7365?
  • With the bolt in question being 5/8-11 by 4 inches long, we do not have a threaded locking pin available. However, you could drill a 1/4" hole in the threaded end of the bolt and then use the Tow Ready Trailer Coupler Lock # 3008 in the drilled hole. This isn't the most elegant solution, but will work.
