For a quick link to go with the Safety Chain part # 2118-605-04 that you referenced I would recommend the part # 6590-044-04, these have a 2,200 lb capacity. If you need more capacity go with the # C81277 as it has a 5k capacity.

I would recommend bleeding your brakes after installing a new Solenoid Valve, #T4748800. The main brake line must be disconnected from the actuator to install this item and anytime the brake lines are disconnected, there is a chance for air or some…

The Curt #C51180 Echo would indeed be compatible with your 2020 Outback, and of the available controllers it would be the easiest to install. The Echo plugs into a 7-way trailer connector and would use your smartphone (iOS 8.0+ or Android 4.4+) as…
