Recommended Hitch for a 2011 Subaru Outback
Question:
I have a 2011 subaru outback with a dual exhaust. I want to purchase a hitch for it but have not found any install videos that feature the dual exhaust setup. Do you have any videos on this and which hitch will work? Thank you

We do have an installation video of the Draw-Tite item # 75673 being installed on a 2011 Subaru Outback with dual exhaust. I have linked it below.
The Draw-Tite item # 75673 is extremely similar to the Curt item # 13390 you were looking at. They are both class III hitches with 2" receivers. Each has a 4,000 lbs towing capacity and a 600 lbs maximum tongue weight. Neither one of them will fit the Sport model. I recommend going with the most affordable option.
If you are planning on towing you will also need a wiring harness item # C56040 and a ball mount kit item # C45534. Like the hitches this wiring harness will not fit the Sport model.
