Is a 2 Trailer Hitch Available for a 2003 Subaru Baja
Question:
Hi I ordered a Reese hitch and dealer had ordered curt hitch but neither fits. I want a 2” receiver and wonder if Drawtight would work?

Expert Reply:
While we do have a Curt # C11280 are 1-1/4" Class I trailer hitches. If you wanted a 2" receiver you need to use the Brophy Hitch Extender # HES0 but this cuts the weight ratings of the trailer hitch by 50% which means your limited to 1,000 lbs towing/100 lbs tongue weight.
Since this is less than ideal, I recommend using an accessory that fits a Class I trailer hitch receiver. If you let me know what you plan on using the trailer hitch for, I can make additional recommendations as necessary.
Attached is an installation video of the Draw-Tite trailer hitch on a 2005 Baja that you can reference.
