Curt Hitch Recommendation for a 2015 Subaru XV Crosstrek
Question:
What is the difference between the c 13135 and the c 13144 hitches?
asked by: Doug
Expert Reply:
The difference between the two hitches you referenced is the vehicles they fit. The part # C13135 fits 2013 - 2015 Subaru XV Crosstrek and would be the correct hitch for your 2015 Subaru XV Crosstrek. Whereas the part # C13144 fits 2014 - 2016 Subaru Foresters.
I attached an install video for the # C13135 for you to check out as well.
If you wanted to do some towing you might be interested in etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop. It also includes a 1-7/8 inch ball, 2 inch ball, hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag.
If the ball mount kit does not include a ball mount with the right rise or drop to tow the trailer level, check out the link I have included that explains how to measure to choose a ball mount to tow the trailer level.
For trailer wiring you would want the part # 118467.
