I bought thi hitch for my 2008 Subaru Legacy Wagon. The hitch fits perfectly into the factory mounting bolts, easy and quick intalation, all hardware came in the package. Also the price for this part was $[XX] less than anybody else offers.

Had my garage remove a very rusty older bar from my '06 Outback and fit this one so I could attach a new Thule MTB rack to 2" hitch. It's been rock solid and has worked perfectly.

2008 Subaru Outback Wagon
Great hitch and delivery came as promised, very quickly. It was a bit tricky installing - being careful and thorough, it took 2 hours. The hitch is strong and will hold 400 pounds, plenty for the 73 pound e-bikes we have.

It has been in use for a year and we are completely satisfied with the purchase!

2009 Subaru Outback Wagon
Fairly easy install, even just using a jack. Just followed the video and it took me about 90 minutes with some help from my son. It's hard to imagine doing this without an extra set of hands when actually installing the rack in place, but I'm a B- mechanic and I pulled it off. The rack seems super solid, and if the two previous racks I've ordered from etrailer are any guide, this thing will probably outlast the car it's attached to

Over the past 3 months I have been fixing and replacing parts on my, new to me, 05 Subaru Outback. Sway bar links, lower control arm bushings, driveline, tires, struts... and a taller hitch. Of all the products I've ordered and replaced none have been as easy to install as this hitch. Etrailer provided a YouTube video all the hardware bolts, nuts, spacers needed to do the job. They contacted me via email after my order was placed after it was shipped and after it arrived. Very customer oriented and well designed product. From a retired engineer, this hitch is simple strong and well crafted. I couldn't be happier.

Great trailer hitch, getting ready to order one for my new Jetta sport wagon.
by: C Wise05/04/2024
We bought a car for our daughter and needed to go from WA state to AZ. Needed to pull a small trailer with stuff. Pretty easy install for me. I had so the tools necessary and it towed like a breeze the whole way. Unfortunately didn't get any pics, but it looks very good. Light wiring was a but of a challenge, but this receiver hitch was perfect.
by: Portland, Oregon11/10/2023
The install was quite surprisingly simple. Thanks for the installation video etrailer! Really like the 2” receiver which seems be more accessorized in the market. The strength of this hitch and appearance (for the money) is superior to the smaller receiver offering.
by: John W.07/31/2018
Very solid hitch. Easy to install (with some help from someone far handier than I am). Installation was simple, just 5 bolts. Hardest part was lowering the exhaust assembly. I would recommend this company to friends, George emailed me personally when the hitch was delivered.

by: Edwin02/05/2020
The hitch arrived so fast! I unboxed it in the driveway. I had it installed within three hours of arrival. The fit was perfect. The installation simple and straight-forward. The quality was superb. All necessary items were included. I had reviewed the installation video so I didn't even reference the included instructions. Overall I am very impressed.

It has been wonderful since I installed the hitch. I use for towing a kayak trailer for a local clean up volunteer group. Its been no issues whatsoever. Unfortunately, my car was totaled and lost the vehicle and the hitch. I am looking for another Outback and if it doesnt come with the hitch, I know where to buy again!

2006 Subaru Outback Wagon
Easy to install on my '06 Outback H6 3.0., happy to have a 2" hitch available. Just had to pop a few rubber exhaust hangers to get it in. Considerably cheaper than trailer rental place shipped. Bought it mostly to mount a bike rack, but it has been used to tow a 'lil trailer several times. End of the hitch is about 3.5" recessed behind the rear bumper line, so pretty low visibility when not in use if that matters to you. I would've designed it to mount on top of the rear tow loop as opposed to under it to get that extra 1-1.5" of ground clearance available to reduce my bike rack bottoming out on the steepest of driveways.
by: Steven10/08/2019
Got this hitch for my 05 Outback XT. I got it mainly for my bike rack carrier, but also so I can tow a small utility trailer in the future. Hitch was very easy to install (did it by myself). Had to tap out 2 holes due to rust, but other than that, install was smooth. I really like how it looks on my car. Had a few paint chips (I’m assuming from shipping or storage) that I had to touchup after I put the hitch on but that was no big deal. Customer service was awesome, I give a shout-out to Rose G for being awesome and helping me out. I would Definitely recommend etrailer to anyone for there trailer and hitch needs.

2006 Subaru Outback Wagon
# 75560 Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch 2" Receiver, for 2006 Subaru Outback. Video for 2008 model has good tips. However, 2005 and 2006 are different. The same 4 capped factory nuts are there, but only the two rear-most are used. Further back, a bolt must be removed from the angle iron bracket holding the rear bumper on. One on each side. Toss the bolt and use longer bolt, supplied. Before removing the bumper bolt, use a crow bar to do some bending. Very close fit between rear-most hitch anchor points and bumper bracket. Mine didn't fit. Car was too wide and hitch too narrow. Barely. Vertical part of bumper bracket angle iron needs to be bent in. Leave bracket bolts in to insure the right part is stressed and bent. Two inches of the forward most end of the angle iron has a gap between horizontal and vertical. -They don't meet at the corner. Helps in bending the vertical. 2005 install video by etrailer was very helpful. Theirs fit right out of the box.

2005 Subaru Outback Wagon
I found the information on the etrailer site to be very informative and helpful. Found the install video to be "right on" except that I needed to drop both of my mufflers to get the hitch into position (2005 Subaru Outback LL Bean Edition 3.0). Other than that, the install went as described in the video, and very close to the estimated time. I've included a few pics. Very happy with the customer service from etrailer. Shipping was fast, communications regarding my order were excellent, and the product is a quality hitch exactly as described. Thank you!
by: Alan E02/11/2012
Installation was as quick as described.
However, there was some amount of work to remove the mud guards in order to drop the muffler system. Removal took some work since 3 different fasteners were used.
I was working at home alone using a set of ramps to access the rear of the car, and it took some work to:
1. lift the hitch assembly into place. Hint, lift one side and loosely fit a bolt, then do the other side. and
2. lifting the muffler system into place required a set of straps attached to the roof rack and progressively raising each side.
Maybe a younger person would find it easier, but it is either a two person job, or it requires some thought and experiment.
by: Jon07/02/2018
2006 Subaru Outback Wagon
Received products in a couple days from ordering. Everything was packed well and intact. Installation was super easy after watching the video a couple times. It probably took me more time to figure out where the lift points were on my Subaru than to actually attach the hitch. The installation kit included all the bits I needed and contained clear information (especially in combination with the video). Will absolutely recommend the DrawTite hitch and eTrailer!

Its been a year since installing the Hitch Receiver. Granted it nearly never rains here in Arizona but i use the hitch everyday and drive a dirt road so I end u reunning the truck through the car wash at least 4 x a week. The hitch stil looks and performs axactly the same as the day I installed it. Although its not recommended I managed to install mine by myself, with no lifs or jacks. It was a bit awkward but I had it installed in about 30 mins on my 2016 Jeep Patriot.

2007 Jeep Compass
I attached it to a 2007 Jeep Compass and used a 2" ball hitch to pull a canoe trailer and canoe. No problems whatsoever as the both the tow weight and hitch/ball weight were well within limits. This trailer hitch receiver also allows me to tow light loads such as firewood; I'll also use it to transport my daughter's storage unit boxes from college. The boxes will probably weigh more than the firewood. Kudos.

2014 Jeep Compass
This hitch wasn't quite as easy to install as in the video without the car up on a rack. The video was helpful. The hitch requires some jockeying around to get both bolts to go in. I used a couple of jacks to make it happen. The brackets were a little narrow for my 2014 Jeep Compass so I used a few 1/8 inch washers on one side to avoid stressing the welds too much on tightening. In the end the install came out good and the hitch seems solid.

This for my 08 Jeep Patriot. Ordered on a Saturday, had the hitch by Thursday. And about 20 minutes after opening the package it was on my Jeep. Couldn't be easier to install, and i was able to do it all by myself. I bought this for my Thule bike rack, and it works perfectly.

A year later and the product is every bit as good when it was brand new. Ive probably told a half dozen people about the site and how easy it was to install. Found my Thule bike rack on Craigslist, and the savings paid for the hitch.

The hitch arrived well packaged and had all the necessary hardware. Installation was quick and easy. We tow a small utility trailer on a regular basis and have had no problems.
by: Neil01/01/2022
This is a good hitch. Not sure about other applications but for the Jeep Patriot, it is designed to be used along with the rear toe hook. If you are not installing the rear toe hook or don’t have one, a 3/16” thick shim on the driver side should be used to make up the difference. I used 5/8” washers. Also, if you have existing factory trailer wiring, the hitch interferes with the through wiring from the top. This is because this hitch sits about an inch higher than other hitches. The rear lower bumper cover will need to be trimmed to accommodate the receiver portion of the hitch. This is not a surprise as it is stated as such on the website. Overall the hitch is well constructed. The box the hitch came in was pretty beat up upon arrival. Some how all hardware stay inside. I would recommend but there is a bit more to installing this one.
by: Michael06/21/2018
2014 Jeep Patriot
The one sheet install directions were wanting . The hitch fit well once we figured out to get it up. On the driver's side the Patriot has a plastic box that makes it hard to set the hitch. We found the bumper needed to be cut before the hitch could get in back of this box (some type of converter). We set the forward bolt on the right side of the hitch. This allowed us the line up the receiver on the bumper and we scribbed a mark on both sides. We cut the slot out with a soldering iron (pictured) and later a multi tool. After the slot was in we could tilt the hitch up which allowed us get the driver's side behind the plastic box. Again setting the forward bolt first. Then it was just a matter getting the rear bolts lined up. (A better description on marking the slot would have helped.) We continued to trim the slot with the multi tool until we could line up the bolts with the hitch.
We did drop the muffer which was easy enough. It's odd the Jeep would have holes to receive a hitch and not have socket the wiring to plug in the wiring for the trailer. The wiring took as long as the hitch. (No fault of E-Trailer)
by: Michael 09/16/2023
Went on like a dream. Fit and pulls perfect. Make sure you watch the video fully before pulling it on. After the second view I felt fully comfortable cutting the bumper. Measure twice, go slow, undercut and take more to fit.
by: Kevin K.06/07/2014
The hitch arrived in a nice box that has hand holes in it for easy handling. The hitch could use some sort of dense foam padding inside the box, especially on the flange tabs that attach to the car frame, as the shipper was less than careful and those we're sticking out of the box. The bag containing the parts was ripped and there were 2 loose washers floating around in the box (luckily they didn't fall out of the holes). The instructions were easy enough to follow, although there need to be some corrections/additions made to them. First is the depth dimension for the cutout in the rear fascia, as it wasn't even close, instead of 2" it turned out to be 4 1/2" up from the bottom. Second would be the addition of the socket/wrench size needed to tighten down the nuts and bolts, as the only place I saw that was in the reference video and you had to be watching closely because they don't mention the size in the video. I only bring this up because a lot of socket sets don't have a 7/8" socket or wrench (like mine) and you will have to make a trip to buy one (like me). It is very helpful to have someone help you get the hitch into position to finish the installation. Overall the hitch is a good bargain, well made and very sturdy, I would definitely recommend it.

2010 Jeep Patriot
I finally got around to installing a hitch on my 2010 Patriot. I opted for the Draw-Tite hitch from etrailer.com because 1) it was half the price of a Mopar hitch, 2) it received excellent reviews, and 3) etrailer has wonderful videos walking you through the installation.
The hitch was delivered in no time, and was mounted the following day.
Installation was fairly straightforward with no surprises. If you have a 2010 Patriot, the video showing installation on the ’09 is what you want; the process is the same. It would have been easier with another pair of hands, but I was able to do everything alone. A lift would certainly have helped, but isn't necessary. I didn't need to lower the muffler, and the 2010 Patriot doesn't require the fascia to be trimmed.
One last thing: after ordering, I did see the same hitch advertised elsewhere for a few bucks less. Etrailer's Lowest Price Pledge was honored, and I received credit for 110% of the difference in price, just like they said they would. I would definitely deal with this company in the future.
by: GregH07/17/2019
The hitch came well packaged, and on time. Shipping was faster than the same product from that big box website named after the river! I watched the video from etrailer.com and it helped immensely. I had to trim the heat shield a bit that wasn't in the video but it took about 30sec with a pair of tin snips. Everything else was just like the video explained. Total installation time was about 2hrs. I really appreciate the way the hitch sits so that it doesn't lessen ground clearance, which was a concern for me. Emails from etrailer.com were Johnny on the spot. I'll definitely be doing business with them and recommending them to friends.

2009 Jeep Patriot
An easy install if you follow the video instructions. Hitch fit perfectly. Only minor issues encountered:
1. Did not have the benefit of a car lift for installation. Just performed it while laying underneath the car on the driveway.
2. Tightening the bolts was a challenge because of the long length of the torque wrench and laying on the driveway.
Not bad for a rare DIYer. Check out the result. Took about 30 minutes.

Easy to install. Only two tools used: 22mm socket wrench and an adjustable wrench. I installed the hitch on my 2010 Jeep Patriot in about 15 minutes with no lift or jack and without lowering my exhaust. Bolts lined up and fit perfectly. Didn’t have to cut any part of my bumper.
by: John C03/02/2012
E trailer shipping, packaging and instructions were dead on. The online video just to keep me sane was a help also. Took awhile longer than the 30 minute estimate, but this was mostly due to my own caution.
The hitch bolted up perfectly and I'm more than satisfied with the results.

I have no complaints about this product. Overall it was exactly what I needed. As for the installation of it, just take your time as I did and don't overwhelm yourself, it was easy to do with just myself and basic tools. One suggestion I would have is to ship a very clearly visible video link for people to use in case the included directions are not clear enough for them.
