There is a trailer hitch receiver lock that works with the 1-1/4 inch receiver of the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11286 that fits your 2015 Subaru Impreza, though the lock you mentioned is only a fit for 2 inch hitch receivers.

Instead, for a similar lock I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock # C23517.

This is similar to the lock you mentioned but is compatible with smaller hitch receivers; it is made of stainless steel so it is highly resistant to any corrosion and comes with a pair of keys so you have a spare if you ever need it.

I have added a link to an install of the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11286 on a 2015 Subaru Impreza as well as a link to a video review for you to check out of the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock # C23517.

Since most 1-1/4 inch accessories like #63155 have a solid shank you will need to use anti-rattle device #RM-061-125. I have included a link to a video showing how it works.

The Curt Hitch Lock part #C23517 will work just fine for a 10,000 lb trailer however, I do not have a specific tongue weight nor gross trailer weight rating because this is just not something the manufacturer test for. The reason for this is because…

The difference between the Class II and Class III hitches has to do with their Gross Trailer Weight (GTW), their Tongue Weight (TW), and their Hitch Receiver Size. Class II trailer hitch receivers have a 1-1/4 inch receiver and can be rated up to…

Answer 11

Class I and Class II hitches both have a 1-1/4 inch receiver opening. The difference is that a Class I hitch has a lower tongue weight rating, usually 200 pounds and a lower towing rating, usually 2,000 pounds. A Class II hitch usually has a tongue…

Answer 12

To me it makes the most sense to put a Bike Rack #HLY64FR on the flat towed vehicle rather than above the tow bars. Especially on heavy e-bikes as they are difficult to lift that high onto the rack, but also as it only makes sense to have the rack on…
