4 Bike Platform Rack Recommendation for a 2014 Subaru Outback Wagon
Question:
Will the Swagman XTC4 4-bike rack work on a 2014 Subaru outback? I have a trailer hitch on it that I purchased through you that is set back about 4-5inch under the bumper. thank you!

Expert Reply:
The Swagman XTC4 Bike Rack part # S64665 that you referenced has a distance of 12-3/4 inches from the center of the hitch pin to the nearest wheel hoop.
I checked your order notes and it looks like you have the Curt Hitch part # C13206 installed on your 2014 Subaru Outback which would have more than enough clearance and weight capacity for this bike rack so it should work very well for you.
