High quality hitch with a straightforward installation process from my driveway. This will allow me to haul small things and put a bike rack in the back for "easy on my back" bike removal. The video from etrailer was excellent in visually showing how to do the major steps and it helped me tremendously, thank you etrailer! This hitch didn’t require removing the exhaust system, did not require modifying the heat shield, nor require drilling the frame, and that made installation a lot easier to do. Cutting a notch in the bumper was easy with a Dremel. If I had to do it again, I would get the fishwire up front before installation instead of a do-it-myself solution for bolt routing. Taking off the whole bumper body looked intimidating to me at first, but I got through the process OK as it pretty much snaps back into place. Overall the installation process was good and I’m happy with the results.
Excellent hitch. Powdercoating was flawless, for was perfect, and trim template measurements for lower bumper trimming were spot on.
This is the first hitch I’ve installed myself, and it still only took 90 minutes!
Highly recommend for 21+ Outback!!
Excellent quality. Install isnt bad. Bumper removal requires removing 7 platic fasteners and a fastener removal tool makes this pretty easy. Two of the fasteners (in the wheel well) have tiny center buttons that need to be pressed prior to prying them off. Four bolts and 2 nuts need to be removed from the car and they are easy to access with a 6 inch extender on your ratchet. Two of the provided bolts have to be dropped about 6 in into an opening and I used a wire attached to the bolt to do this. Follow the suggestion in the directions and temporarily tighten the hitch to the car for this step. The bumper needs to be cut, but it was easy with tin snips and the cut area is not visible after installation. I needed to drop my muffler to properly torque one of the bolts and this was easy, just two bolts. Very satisfied with this hitch.
Fantastic hitch and easy to install after watching videos on etrailer. Good price and SOLID construction… probably more capacity than I will ever need, but good to know that there is extra if I need it.
Received the hitch on time. Installed it on Subaru Outback 2022 Wilderness. Hitch is sturdy, well made and nicely fits on this vehicle
As a Shop teacher I tend to overbuild things. It would appear that Curt follows this philosophy as well. Their hitch that I installed on my Subaru is definitely overbuilt. Because of its beef it is likely that the back of the car is now stronger than it even was. Was it an “easy installation”? No it wasn’t. But the Curt instructions categorized the installation as “Difficult”. For me it wasn’t exactly that either. I would describe it as challenging. So how challenging was it? If you’re mechanically inclined, if you can take things apart, put them together and they work, if you like a little bit of a puzzle, if you have a pretty good set of mechanics tools - if this describes you, go for it! But HOW challenging? If you have ever disassembled a dryer to replace a drive belt and when finished it works - that can be a challenge the first time. This might be on par with that kind of difficulty. The wisdom of Curt to call it difficult? I would agree. Not easy, not impossible - as I said - challenging. Overall well thought out, very well made. A quality product that I will trust for as long as we own the car.
Great quality.
looks pretty, haven't installed yet, deciding which of my bodies is competent enough to give me a hand and not scratch the paint :) .
all good,easy install.
