Does Spare Tire Get Removed to Install the Curt Hitch part # C13046 on a 2007 Subaru B9 Tribeca
Question:
With the installation of this hitch, will I still be able to have the spare tire mounted properly in the spare tire mount area? All of the pictures for this product were taken without the spare tire in place. I have a 2007 Subaru B9 Tribeca.

Expert Reply:
To install the Curt Hitch part # C13046 on your 2007 Subaru B9 Tribeca you will need to temporarily remove your spare tire. You will be able to reinstall it once the hitch is installed.
For trailer wiring I would recommend the Curt Harness part # C59496.
For ball mounts I recommend the etrailer Ball Mount Kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts, 2 balls, a hitch pin with clip, and a carrying bag.
