Your 2020 Subaru Ascent will require a roof rack to carry any cargo basket, including the Thule Canyon XT Roof Cargo Basket # TH859XT.
Assuming you have raised side rails that run front to back on your Ascent, here is the roof rack that will work with your Subaru:
- Yakima JetStream Crossbars # Y00429 (Silver) or # Y00426 (Black)
- TimberLine Towers for Yakima Crossbars # Y33TR
As for the paddleboards, there isn't anything designed to carry them in a cargo basket so you can use whatever... view full answer...
The best set up for a rooftop tent would be the Yakima JetStream roof rack system because it's easy to use, reliable, and has a weight capacity of 165 lbs. To connect this to the raised rails on your 2021 Subaru Ascent you need the 60" JetStream Crossbars # Y00426 along with the TimberLine Towers # Y33TR.
To add locks to the TimberLine Towers you can do so with the kit # Y07204. This will help prevent a passerby from being able to remove the roof rack easily. view full answer...
The Thule Motion XT and Force XT cargo boxes will fit your 2019 Subaru Ascent no problem. They are essentially the same box with the Force XT being the newer style with the Black AeroSkin finish as opposed to the standard Glossy Black or Titan (gray) finish on the Motion XT. Thule says that the XT Sport, L, and XL sizes will fit your Ascent so you can choose from the following depending on what size you need and finish you want:
11 cu ft
Force XT Sport - # TH6356B
16 cu ft
Force XT -... view full answer...
Of the mirrors we have as confirmed fits, I'd recommend the CIPA # 11953-2. Each mirror has 2 independently adjustable mirror pieces to provide you with a better field of vision than a mirror with a single face would.
This mirror would be a fit unless the Ascent is a Limited or Platinum Edition, which uses a mirror that's different enough that the towing mirror wouldn't be able to attach reliably. If you click the link, you can see a product description video featuring the mirror I recommended. view full answer...
Yes, the Malone Profile18B Rooftop Cargo Box # MPG911 will fit securely on your 2020 Subaru Ascent with factory crossbars as long as your crossbars are measure 1-3 inches in width and 3/4 inches - 1-3/8 inches in height. Some crossbars (factory or aftermarket) do have a slight arc to them. This is not abnormal when it comes to crossbar systems. view full answer...
The LaSalle Bristol Utopia RV Bathroom Faucet part # 34420373P21 fits a pretty standard mounting pattern. That said, if you want to confirm it will fit your exact sink just measure the mounting holes. They should be around a 13/16" diameter with 4" spacing. The bathroom faucets are pretty standardized thankfully so fit isn't too much of an issue with a bit of knowledge and measuring. view full answer...
The etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e55ZR will be completely hidden by the hitch bumper cover once installation is complete. The last step of the instructions note that the fascia has a removable panel for hitch usage and that the panel can then be reinstalled when hitch is not in use. This will allow you to maintain the clean factory look while having the hitch installed.
I have attached an installation video of the Curt # C25VR which has an identical installation process. You can follow... view full answer...
I went to the warehouse to measure the Primus and it does not take up as much space as you would think. The Tekonsha Primus part # TK90160 measures:
Width- 3-3/8"
Height- 1-1/4"
Length-4-5/8"
Most customers mount the Primus to the right side of the steering wheel low enough to where it doesn't interfere with driving. It does need to be mounted on a level horizontal plane and be lined up with the direction of travel. Vertically it can be mounted at any angle between 0 and 90 degrees.

The TimberLine Towers # Y33TR and Yakima JetStream Crossbars # Y00426 are confirmed to fit your 2019 Subaru Ascent and are going to be a great option to use both your Thule Portage Canoe attachment and Yakima Keel Over Canoe attachment. You will be able to use the Thule Portage and the Yakima Keel Over with the JetStream crossbars without issue.
You can also add the Yakima Same Key System (SKS) Lock Cores # Y07204. This will allow you to lock your roof rack to your roof. view full answer...
I recommend the Ultra-Fab Folding Spare Tire Carrier for Trailers and RVs - Bumper Mount item # UF15-954730. This carrier has a capacity of 60 lbs and will work with lug patterns up to 5, 6, and 8 lug wheels. It is designed to fit square 4" x 4" bumpers.
I also recommend using the Adco's black spare tire cover item # 290-1733 to protect your wheel and tire. It looks like your wheel and tire have a diameter of just above 29" so this will fit perfectly. view full answer...
Using a ball mount like the Brophy # BH20 that is 13-1/4" long compared to a more standard Curt # D-4 that is 10-1/4" long, will not reduce the maximum tongue weight allowed on your receiver. It is important to be sure to not exceed the weight ratings on either your receiver, the ball mount or the hitch ball. As all 3 of these will have their own maximum weight ratings be sure to never exceed the lowest rating of all the components.
You will only need to look at reducing weight when you... view full answer...
We've sold quite a few of the etrailer hitch part # e55ZR that fits your 2021 Subaru Ascent and none of our customers have had an issue with the hitch when towing. It was extensively tested and the way it installs is a safe and secure place on the vehicle. There are several other hitches that install the same way for different vehicles and it works fine. I would not worry at all as long as you plan to stay under the weight capacity of the vehicle.
For trailer wiring then the Tekonsha kit... view full answer...
I believe you are asking about the hidden hitch for your 2021 Subaru Ascent, the EcoHitch Invisi Trailer Hitch Receiver # 306-X7381, and it will not compromise the integrity of the rear impact on your vehicle whatsoever.
So you can use the # 306-X7381 totally safely on your Ascent. The only other thing you'll need if you plan on towing with your Ascent is a 4-way, the T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # C56040. view full answer...
Thanks for the pictures! I have exactly what you are looking for. We have a couple of mounting options for the control knob that can go inside inserts in your Subaru's dash. This will give you a clean factory look install. The Universal Mounting Panel for Redarc Tow-Pro Trailer Brake Controller Control Knob item # 331-TPSI-001 which measures 1-1/4 by 1 inch.

To carry your bike rack with a 2" shank on your 2022 Subaru Ascent, you can use the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e55ZR which has the 2" hitch receiver you are needing. The 2" receiver is the most common size used for hitch mounted accessories like cargo carriers, ball mounts and your bike rack. This hitch also has a nice matte black finish and a bolt-on, no-drill installation. view full answer...
I was able to confirm both our class III etrailer Trailer Hitch Receivers # e55ZR and # e35ZR are confirmed to fit your 2024 Subaru Ascent. The Receiver # e35ZR is going to be the easier install option as it will bolt to the bottom of the frame rails and hang below the rear bumper fascia. If you are concerned with ground clearance or want the best looking receiver we have the Receiver # e55ZR which will sit behind the factory removable panel. This is a more difficult install as it requires... view full answer...
You can use the Iphone at the same time as the Curt Echo controller part # C51180 because the Echo pairs with the controller via Bluetooth. The only functions you would not be able to use on your phone is with a bluetooth device like your vehicle's media system or a headset. However, we do not really recommend to use the phone while towing just in the case that you need to hit the manual override, you want the phone easily accessible with the Curt app open. You can also pair the brake controller... view full answer...

I checked with the manufacturer, Curt, for you and can verify that yes, the Curt hitch does fit your 2022 Subaru Ascent Onyx Edition:
- Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C25VR
This will give your Ascent a nice option for a hitch that can be concealed, and the only other thing you will need, if you plan on doing some towing with your '22 Ascent, is a trailer wiring harness.
The best option for a harness, due to it being the most reliable, is from Tekonsha, the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness... view full answer...
