Yes, the 75673 hitch will carry over and fit the 2011 model Outback. We also have the Curt Trailer Hitch, # 13390. This is a Class III trailer hitch rated at 3,500 pounds of gross trailer weight and 350 pounds tongue weight capacity, and it has a 2 inch receiver.

I have included a link to the installation details below for the hitches. If you plan on doing some towing with the hitch, I recommend the etrailer.com Ball Mount Kit, # 989900. This kit comes with two ball mounts, two balls, and a hitch pin and clip.
