Question:

Hi, I am wondering whether installation tools are included in the shipping box. If no, what kind of tools are needed to install this hitch on a 2016 Subaru Forester? I may need to buy before hand. Thanks!

The Class III Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver, part # C13144, only comes with the hitch and the hardware needed to install on your 2016 Subaru Forester.

Per the instructions, Curt says the installation requires:

Die Grinder
Ratchet
10mm 3/4 inch Socket
6 inch Socket Extension
Phillips Head Screwdriver
Jack Stands, like part # PTW1605
Safety Glasses

The hitch comes with detailed instructions that also include pictures. I have attached an install video of this hitch being installed on a similar 2016 Forester for you to review.
