Expert Reply:
The Yakima SkyBox 18 part # Y07336 is listed as a confirmed fit for your 2017 Subaru Outback Wagon's crossbars. You'll need to take one quick measurement to determine if the box will allow your rear hatch to open though. Measure from the center of the front crossbar back to the rear hatch seam. If that distance is more than 57 inches this box will allow the hatch to open.
If you find a smaller distance we have other options like the SkyBox 16 which requires 52 inches or the Thule Force XT # TH6358B which requires 51-1/8 inches (this is 18 cubic feet storage).
I attached some review videos for the mentioned boxes as well.
