Trailer Hitch Installation - 2018 Subaru Impreza- Video
Speaker 1: Today on our 2018 Subaru Impreza we're going to be taking a look at and showing you how to install the Draw Tite Class I custom fit trailer hitch receiver, part number DT24959.My overall impression of this hitch, it is one of the nicer looking ones because it does stick up nice, close to the bumper and hugs the car nicely. However, it is a Class I, so we are going to be limited on the accessories and the weight that we can pull with it. But compared to the Curt Class I, we're not going to have to worry about using any kind of stabilization straps if we are carrying a bike rack or a cargo carrier. It is going to sit right below the bumper, and that cross tube going from side to side is going to be visible. It's going to give us that inch and a quarter by inch and a quarter receiver tube opening, which is going to be great for some smaller bike racks or a small cargo carrier. Just keep in mind, since it is a Class I, it's only going to accept Class I accessories because there is that stop inside the back of the receiver tube.Now, the way we're going to mount all of our accessories to the hitch pin hole here, and it is going to accept a half-inch pin and clip. more

Speaker 1: Today on our 2018 Subaru Impreza we're gonna be taking a look at and showing you how to install the Draw-Tite class three custom fit trailer hitch receiver, part number 76209. My overall impression of this hitch is that it is gonna be great for a lot of different things. It does sit a little bit lower than some, it's a class three hitch which means it's gonna give us that two inch by two inch receiver tube opening which is gonna open up our options for accessories if we want to tow something or possibly carry up to several different bikes or a cargo carrier.The way we're gonna mount our accessories is gonna be the hole towards the front of our vehicle which is gonna be the hitch pin hole and that's gonna accept a standard five-eighths pin and clip. Now these aren't included in our kit but you can pick them up on our website using part number PC3. The secondary hole towards the back of the receiver tube is gonna be use exclusively for the J-pin stabilization device. The way that's gonna work is it's gonna go through the hitch pin hole like normal and then it's gonna have this hook here which is gonna go in and apply pressure to our accessory keeping it from rattling. more

Curt Trailer Hitch Installation - 2018 Subaru Impreza- Video
Speaker 1: Today on our 2018 Subaru Impreza, we're going to be taking a look at and showing you how to install the Curt class one custom fit trailer hitch receiver, part number C11465. My overall impression of the hitch is, that it's going to be great if you're only going to carry up to two bikes. Because it is a class one, so it is going to limit us on how much we can carry and the accessories. Now if you step up to a class two or three, it is going to open that to a lot more options. It is going to sit right below the bumper and we are going to see the cross tube.It's a class one hitch, which means it's going to give us that inch and a quarter by inch and a quarter receiver tube opening. And it is going to be pretty close to flush with our bumper. more

Speaker 1: Today, we're going to be taking a look at the best hitch options for your 2018 Subaru Impreza. On the top here we're going to have a Draw-Tite, and that's going to be a class three hitch. Right below that, we're going to have the Draw-Tite class one, and then, right below that, we're going to have a Curt class one hitch.Our two class one hitches are going to give us an inch and a quarter by an inch and a quarter receiver tube opening, and they're going to be good for your smaller bike racks and smaller cargo carriers, but they are going to be limited on what we can use because of the smaller receiver tube opening and because they're class one. So the weight rating is going to be much lower. Our class three is going to give us a 2 inch by 2 inch receiver tube opening, and it's going to open up a lot more options when it comes to what kind of accessories we can use. We're going to be able to carry up to four bikes, larger cargo carriers, and a ball mount if you plan on doing some light duty towing.All three of our hitches are going to mount relatively the same. more
