Recommended Trailer Hitch, Wiring, and Ball Mount for 2022 Subaru Outback Wagon
Question:
Looking for a hitch for my 2022 subaru outback. Preferably something I won't see hanging down in the back. I will be renting a small trailer occasionally to move things around and I need something that will let me do that. If you would let me know what hitch would work and anything else I would need that would be perfect. Thanks.

For your 2022 Subaru Outback Wagon I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C67JR. This hitch features a sturdy, square-tube design and comes with a limited lifetime warranty. It also has a concealed cross tube so only the receiver will be visible which helps maintain a factory look.
You will want to add wiring as well to power the signal lights on your trailer. I recommend the Tekonsha T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # 118467. This plugs directly into existing wiring in the rear cargo area. For a ball mount, check out the etrailer Ball Mount Kit # 989892. This kit comes with a 1-7/8" and 2" ball, along with a ball mount bag to store everything in.
I have attached some review and installation videos for your reference.
