  • Distance from Ground to Hitch Opening of Draw Tite Hitch for 2018 Subaru Impreza Wagon
  • When we installed the Draw Tite Hitch part # 76209 on a 2018 Subaru Impreza Wagon just like yours we found the height from the top of the trailer hitch opening to the ground measured 10 inches. So what you'll need to do is measure from the bottom of your trailer coupler lip down the ground when it's sitting level and whatever the difference is what rise/drop you need. I also attached a help article that details how to determine the needed rise/drop as well for you to check out.

  • Dimensions of Detail K2 Mighty Multi Utility Trailer
  • We have a Detail K2 Mighty Multi Utility Trailer # K2MMT4X6 here so I went to measure the bed and it was approximately 47-3/4" wide, so there would not be enough room to fit your 48" wide plywood.

This trailer has a bed which is 88" long x 52" wide which is enough room to carry your 48" plywood. This is an A-frame trailer with six tie-down locations...

  • Which Trailer Hitch for 2019 Subaru Impreza Will Have Best Ground Clearance
  • When we installed the Draw Tite hitch # 76209 on a similar Impreza as your 2019 model we found that the ground clearance was right at 8 inches. The EcoHitch part # 306-X7350 would actually have the best ground clearance as only the hitch opening hangs below the rear bumper. This allows for better ground clearance around corners where the rear of the vehicle would be angled and also where most ground clearance issues happen.

  • Can a 2014 Subaru Impreza WRX Hatchback Tow a 2,000 lb Trailer
  • According the online version of the owner's manual for your 2014 Subaru Impreza WRX Hatchback (page 8-13) Subaru says that your vehicle is not designed or intended to be used for towing a trailer. The reason there are trailer hitches like the EcoHitch # 306-X7261 that you referenced is for accessories like bike racks and cargo carriers. I wouldn't know how your vehicle would handle or perform under the 2,000 lb max weight of the trailer hitch as trailer hitch manufacturers only test their...

  • Can a Class I Hitch be Used to Tow Triumph Motorcycle and Trailer With 2018 Subaru Impreza
  • In order to determine if you can pull your motorcycle trailer and Triumph bikes you will need to know the tongue weight and trailer weight of what you are towing. You will also want to consult the owners manual of your vehicle to find the towing capacity for your 2018 Subaru Impreza. For the Curt # C11465 the maximum gross towing weight is 2,000 lbs and maximum tongue weight is 200 lbs. As long as you do not exceed the tongue weight and towing weight of the hitch and your vehicle you...

  • Bike Rack That Can Accommodate More Than 2 Bikes on 2006 Impreza With Class I Receiver
  • The only hitch offered for your 2006 Impreza is a Class I, which has a relatively low tongue weight capacity of 200 lbs. This is due to the strength of the attachment points on the frame rails where the hitch installs to the vehicle. Because of this low tongue weight capacity, no more than two bikes should be placed on a bike rack used in a Class I receiver (although the rack might be able to accommodate 3 or 4 bikes). As more bikes are added, the leverage placed on the receiver increases....

  • Maximum Capacity of Cargo Carrier Used on 2014 Subaru Impreza
  • The capacity of any towing system will always be limited by the capacity of its lowest-rated component. Although the Reese # PS10401-10402 cargo carrier has a 400 lb capacity and the EcoHitch # 306-X7211 you'd looked at has a 525 lb tongue weight capacity (maximum amount of downward force that can safely be applied to the hitch) the 2014 Subaru Impreza owner's manual lists a maximum tongue weight of 200 lbs. Therefore, you'll want to abide by the 200 lb maximum mentioned in the owner's...

  • Fuse Size for Wiring Harness on 2012 Subaru Impreza Sedan
  • The inline fuse of Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # C56259 that fits your 2012 Subaru Impreza sedan is a 10 amp fuse. With this - and all other - harnesses I highly recommend using Dielectric Grease for Electrical Connectors # 11755 to help prevent any type of corrosion in your connector; using it will increase your 4-way's durability and extend its lifespan.

  • Recommended Hitch for a 2013 Subaru Impreza 2.0i Premium Hatchback
  • That one won't but I have one that will. I checked with EcoHitch and the correct hitch for your 2013 Subaru Impreza 2.0i Premium Hatchback is item # 306-X7211.

If you are planning on towing you will also need a wiring harness item # C56368 and a ball mount kit item # C45534.

  • Towing Capacity of Trailer Hitch for 2017 Subaru Impreza
  • I was unable to find the exact towing capacity of your vehicle online. Best option will be to check your owners manual or to check with Subaru directly. When determining the overall towing capacity of a setup you have to go by the lowest rated component as the overall capacity. The Draw Tite part # DT24959 is a fit for your 2017 Subaru Impreza and it has towing capacities of 2,000 lbs total trailer weight and 200 lbs tongue weight. If that is higher than the capacity of your vehicle as...

  • Does the 200 lb Tongue Weight Capacity of Curt Class I Trailer Hitch Apply to Hitch Accessories
  • Tongue weight represents the maximum amount of downward force that can be safely suspended from the hitch, whether it be tongue load applied from a trailer coupler, or a hitch mounted accessory like a bike rack or a cargo carrying tray like the # PS1040100 you looked at. In the case of your hitch, the weight of the cargo carrier plus whatever is loaded on it could not exceed 200 lbs.
