Will Thule T2 Platform-Style Bike Carrier, # TH96XT Fold Up on a 2011 Subaru Outback Wagon  

Question:

Do you sell any hitch or have a recommended solution that will allow me to close my Thule T2 bike rack with a 2011 Outback. I am already committed to both the rack and the car.

I can tell you that with the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch, # 75673 installed, it will measure 7 inches from the center of the hitch pin hole out to the distance required to clear the rear bumper on a wagon model of the 2011 Outback.

On Curt Trailer Hitch, # 13390, it is potentially less at 4 inches (the measurement was taken on a 2010 model) so it would offer more clearance. On the Thule T2 Platform-Style Bike Carrier, # TH69TX, when in the down position, the rack measures 7" inches from the center of the hitch pin hole to the nearest bike rack rail.

When folded up, the carrier measures 5 inches from hitch pin hole center to the nearest rail.

I have included a link to the installation instructions for both hitches, along with links to videos showing typical installations for you to view.
