How to Determine Torque Setting for Installing Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch on 2020 Subaru Ascent
Question:
Hello, I’m am planning on installing the Draw-Tite hitch on my 2020 Subaru Ascent and the installation video does not give the torque setting I should use to tighten the bolts securing the hitch to the car frame - can you help?

Expert Reply:
On rare occasion, torque settings can change slightly by the manufacturers, which is why they aren't mentioned specifically in our videos, but I can tell you exactly what you need to do to find the right settings.
I have linked the installation instructions of the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 76253 that fits your 2020 Subaru Ascent, and if you click on those instructions and go to the final steps, you can see the exact torque needed to install this hitch on your Subaru.
I have also linked the installation video for you to easily come back to of the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch # 76253.
