Most Popular EcoHitch for 2014 Subaru Outback Wagon

Great instructions and product delivery arrived fast, and unscathed. Install was straightforward and measurements to cut fascia on the bumper worked well.

Fit my Outback pefect, well hidden. I only use it for bike rack. Would definitely endorse for others

Just finished installing this a few moment ago and I have to say that it really looks good on our 2014 Outback 3.6R. The low profile of the receiver barely extends beyond the line of the mufflers. I dont think it will be as much of a consideration when backing into a parking stall as other systems that I have seen. There were minor issues that I ran into with the install, so it took me about 3 hours to get this mounted at home with no extra help. I also decided to do the bumper removal method. I felt comfortable removing the trim, and it had the added bonus of giving me more room to work. If you dont have an extra set of hands to help align the hitch to the bolts, you can use a ratchet strap thrown around the hinges for the rear hatch. Hook into the loops where you normally place your trailer chains and take up the weight of the hitch. This will allow just enough support so you can have both hands to start aligning the bolts to the hitch. Lastly, I decided to torque everything down and suspended the muffler before I reattached the bumper bar and trim. The part that was the most difficult for me was getting the dual exhaust remounted onto the rubber bungs. I ended up having to grind off about 3/4-1 inch of the rearmost post on the muffler to get it back into the bung hole. I look forward to pulling a trailer and seeing how everything holds up down the road.

Great product! We have used this hitch for several road trips and it has been very useful. I was looking for a 2" hitch for our 2011 Subaru Outback that was hidden well and this did the trick. I would normally install my own hitch, but this time I had a shop do it because the amount of modification justified using a proper lift to do it right.

Follow the installation video and you can't hardly go wrong with this receiver hitch. It was intimidating but very straightforward installation. Very happy with the final product, I just wish it would have been packed better. A little bubble wrap around the sharp edges would go a long way.

Easy instal, looks great!
