Curt Trailer Hitch Installation - 2016 Subaru Legacy- Video
Ryan: Hey everybody, Ryan here at etrailer.com. Today on our 2016 Subaru Legacy we're going to be taking a look at and showing you how to install the Curt Class 2 Inch and a Quarter Trailer Hitch Receiver.This is going to be a good all around hitch whether you plan on using it for accessories like bike racks or cargo carriers, or even doing some light duty towing, which many of our customers actually wrote in and said they we're surprised on how well it worked with that light duty towing. Now one of the things that kind of separates this one from some of the others is that it's going to be a little more visible. Now there is an advantage to that, and that is since everything's going to be more open it's going to be easier to use and mount and unmount those accessories.Another thing I noticed is that this hitch is going to give us really good clearance. The end of it is going to sit pretty much flush with the edge of our bumper and that's going to work really good for those folding accessories. Now this is a class 2 hitch and it's going to have that inch and a quarter by inch and a quarter receiver tube opening. more
