Expert Answers about Subaru Outback Wagon


  • Can Thule Hull-a-port and Malone Carrier with Load Assist be Used on 2019 Subaru Outback
  • The Thule Hull-A-Port XT TH848 should fit perfectly with the Malone DownLoader Kayak Carrier and TelosXL Load Assist # MPG114MD-351XL on your 2019 Subaru Outback with the stowable rack system. While I was not able to find the exact length of your crossbars, the Hull-a-Port takes up 20 inches and the DownLoader takes up 17 inches so you can check the length of your bars to be certain but I'm confident they are plenty long enough to fit both carriers. In regards to fit, the DownLoader is...

  • Will the Rightline Gear Cargo Hatch Saddlebag # RL100B90 Fit a 2013 Subaru Outback Wagon
  • The Rightline Gear Cargo Hatch Saddlebag # RL100B90 doesn't necessarily have a "fit guide" since it has adjustable straps. It should work well for your 2013 Subaru Outback Wagon but you can use the 40" x 20" x 28" dimensions to mock up an example so you can see how it will sit on your vehicle. Please note that the weight of this back and any cargo you have inside will count as roof/ roof rack weight. Be sure that you don't overload your vehicle or your roof rack when using this in addition...

  • Recommended Roof Box for a 2021 Subaru Outback with a Surfboard, Wakeboards, and Backpacks
  • It sounds like you're asking for a roof box recommendation. While we don't have one large enough to carry your surfboard on its side, we do have a few that can house it on its side along with your other gear. It's the Thule Motion XT, part # TH629806, that you referenced is a great choice. With its 18 cubic feet of space and inner dimensions of 79" long x 31-1/2" wide x 15" tall, it will be able to hold everything you have.

  • Will the Etrailer J-Style Kayak Carrier Fit a 2016 Subaru Outback Wagon with Factory Crossbars?
  • If you have a 2016 Subaru Outback Wagon that has the fold-in factory crossbars, it will not effect the compatibility of the etrailer J-Style Kayak Carrier - Folding - Universal Mount # e98878 with the crossbars. However, it is important to note that the etrailer kayak carrier will fit crossbars with maximum dimensions of 3-1/8 inches wide x 1-1/2 inches tall. In order to make sure that your crossbars are compatible, I recommend measuring those dimensions of your crossbars.

  • To determine if the Swagman XTC4 Bike Rack will work on your vehicle when carrying bikes and folded on your 2011 Subaru Outback, the measurement from the center of the hitch pin hole to the farthest back portion of the rear bumper is needed. We installed the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch, # 36493, on a 2011 Outback and measured 7 inches from the center of the hitch pin hole to the farthest back part of the rear bumper, see video link. The XTC4 bike rack has 12-3/4 inches clearance from the...

  • Will Rightline Cargo Hatch Saddlebag Block Tail Lights On 2013 Subaru Outback Wagon
  • For your 2011 Subaru Outback Wagon I recommend taking a measurement to see if you have the needed clearance to make sure you do not block your tail lights when using the Rightline Gear Roof Cargo Carrier, part # RL100B90. In order to make certain it does not interfere with your tail lights, you will need at least 40 inches between your tail lights. The bag is 28 inches tall and 20 inches deep. The weight capacity is listed at 100 lbs. This bag also has a license plate sleeve if the cargo...

  • Will Rhino-Rack Roof Mounted Steel Cargo Basket Fit OEM Roof Rack on 2017 Outback Wagon
  • Yes, the Rhino-Rack Roof Mounted Steel Cargo Basket # RMCB will fit the OEM roof rack on your 2017 Subaru Outback Wagon. You will need to put the mounting hardware at the furthest locations since your roof rack bars are 30" apart on center and that's the max crossbar spread the cargo basket fits. Attached is an installation video of this basket on a 2019 Outback Wagon that you can check out.

  • Will the Inno Roof Deck Platform Rack # INA510 Fit My 2021 Subaru Outback Wagon?
  • I have a solution for you. The Inno Roof Deck Platform Rack # INA510 will work on your factory crossbar system on your 2021 Subaru Outback Wagon if your crossbars have at least 43-1/2 inches of usable crossbar space. Also, your factory crossbars must be less than or equal to 3-1/2 inches wide x 1-3/8 inches tall. In order to get these dimensions, I recommend measuring your crossbars. If you discover that you need a slimmer roof basket, I recommend the Yakima OffGrid Roof Cargo Basket -...

  • What Brake Flange Bolt Pattern Do the Dexter Hydraulic Drum Brake Assembly 3,500 Lbs Fit
  • The Dexter Hydraulic Drum Brake Assembly part # 23-313 for right hand and part # 23-312 for left hand uses an industry standard brake mounting flange pattern which I have attached a photo of below. I would bet this is what you have as you are very close and it's not uncommon for there to be a 1/8" - 1/4" discrepancy since measuring the center of the hole is not always easy.

  • Universal Towing Mirror Recommendation for a 2010 Subaru Outback Wagon
  • You are correct that there are no custom clip-on style mirrors that fit a 2010 Subaru Outback Wagon, so you'll need to use universal mirrors instead. I recommend taking a look at the K-Source Universal Dual Lens Towing Mirrors # KS3990 because they fit most mirrors 4-1/2" - 11-1/2" tall and they have 2 lens to help eliminate blind spots. While we haven't had a chance to install these on an Outback Wagon ourselves, we have recommended this to other Outback Wagon owner's and they seem to...

  • Can The Yakima FrontLoader Fit With SkyBox 16 On Factory Crossbars On 2010 Subaru Outback
  • To confirm the fit of the Yakima FrontLoader Wheel Mount Bike Carrier Item # Y02103 on your 2010 Subaru Outback Wagon factory roof rack, you will need to measure the total open area on the cross bar for mounting accessories. An open crossbar space of 7" is needed for the bike carrier to be secured down. The overall width of the rack is 8.5" wide, and this width is including the wheel loops. Using the bike rack along with the width of the Yakima SkyBox at 36" this could possibly cause contact...

  • Compare Thule Outway vs Thule Gateway Trunk Mounted Bike Rack
  • The Thule Outway part # TH56BV is considered the premium Thule trunk mounted bike rack that's loaded with features that allows it to be easier to use and also more secure whereas the Gateway Pro 3 part # TH78VR is still a great trunk rack but it's features are scaled back a bit. The biggest advantage the Outway has is an easier strap setup that uses 4 rubber coated steel straps instead of the 6 fabric straps of the Gateway. Obviously steel is harder to cut than fabric so that provides...

  • 7 Pole Compatibility on a 2018 Subaru Outback Wagon
  • We have not experienced any issues with installing a brake controller on a 2018 Subaru Outback Wagon. We will typically disconnect the battery when installing # ETBC7. That is the kit I would recommend installing on your vehicle to get 7-way wiring. If you are needing a brake controller, I recommend the Redarc Tow-Pro Elite # RED44FR for its compact size and Brake EVN # TK63VR and # 20127 for its easy to use design.

  • The trailer hitches for the 2008 Subaru Outback will not fit the 2018 Subaru Crosstrek. The vehicles were built on different platforms so they require different hitch designs. For the 2018 Crosstrek the most popular hitch is # C13382. For the 2008 Outback the most popular hitch is # 75560. I have included some links to videos showing example installations of each hitch.
