Trailer Hitch Recommendation for 2016 Subaru Forester for Carrying Thule DoubleTrack
Question:
Hi, I purchased a Thule 990XT from you folks along with a hitch for my 2001 Honda Civic. I now own a 2016 Subaru Forester and wonder what hitch I can use to continue using the Thule 990XT. Recommendations, please! thank you,

Expert Reply:
For your 2016 Subaru Forester the best trailer hitch we offer for carrying a bike rack like the Thule TH990XT would be the Draw Tite part # 75876 as long as you still have the 2 inch adapter that came with the bike rack.
Otherwise the Class II hitch part # 36523 would be the better option. Whenever available I recommend the 2 inch hitches over the smaller size since they have better capacities and more accessories made for them.
