  • Determining Which Ball Mount For Towing New Trailer W/ 2" Coupler
  • Since the trailer you purchased has a coupler that requires a 2" hitch ball, you will need to either replace the 2-5/16" hitch ball on your current ball mount or purchase a separate ball mount with a 2" hitch ball when you need to tow that specific trailer.

  • Ball Mount Recommendation for Use with a Draw-Tite # 75673 on a 2010 Subaru Outback Wagon
  • There is not a required ball mount for this Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver, part # 75673. Since you are worried about clearance I would recommend you use a Trailer Hitch Ball Mount, part # D-4. This ball mount has a distance of 10-1/4 inches from the center of the hitch pin hole to the ball hole. You would have plenty of clearance to run this ball mount in the rise position. I attached installation instructions below as well as a review video of this hitch for you to check out.
