Features to know about

Clean Look and Easy Function: Completely Hidden Rack Receiver

When you’re not carrying bikes or cargo, you don’t want a hitch hanging off the back of your vehicle. This Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver keeps everything tucked away for a clean, factory look. The cross tube sits behind the bumper, and the 2" receiver removes completely with no tools. You can pop it out when you’re done, cover the opening with the included hitch plug, and your vehicle looks untouched.

Quick Setup for Bike Racks and Cargo Carriers: Detachable 2" Receiver

Getting ready to load up is fast with this bolt-on receiver. The detachable design latches into a stainless steel block at the center of the hitch—just push it in until it clicks, then press the side lock for a snug fit. When you’re finished, unlock it, turn the handle, and pull it out. It’s built to handle hitch-mounted racks and carriers with a maximum tongue weight of 350 lbs, so you can bring your bikes or extra gear without hassle.

Solid Build That Stays Quiet: Stainless Steel Construction

This hitch is made from durable stainless steel that resists corrosion and stays strong over time. The tight connection between the receiver and latch block keeps things from rattling while you drive. It meets SAE J684 safety regulations and keeps your ground clearance intact. No drilling or welding is needed—just a simple bolt-on install using existing connection points that protect your vehicle’s crumple zones.

Upgrade Options When You’re Ready to Tow: Compatible Towing Kit

If you decide later that you want to tow a small trailer instead of just carrying gear, you can add the Stealth Hitches towing kit (391CONVOC5, sold separately). That setup replaces the rack receiver with a ball mount rated for up to 3,500 lbs gross trailer weight. It’s an easy way to expand what your hitch can do without changing the hidden design you already like.

This completely hidden hitch keeps your vehicle looking like it just came off the assembly line. Remove the receiver for a fully concealed look when you're not carrying your bikes to the trail. Only for use with hitch-mounted racks and carriers.

by:

The stealth trailer has been really a pleasure to use. A+ build quality, fairly easy to install if you watch a couple of videos and have the proper tools. The package is as described and it’s there when you need it and gone and out of sight when you don’t. Worth every Penny.



by:

Love the hitch! Had a problem with the rubber protective plug falling out of the stainless block in sub zero temperature. Fortunately, it fell out while parked in my driveway, so I didn’t lose it. Otherwise, I am very happy with this premium hitch.

  • Is Draw-Tite Hitch Hidden Like Curt Hitch for 2020 Subaru Crosstrek
    The hidden design of the Curt hitch # C12184 is very appealing and since Draw-Tite actually doesn't have a hidden crosstube design for your 2020 Subaru Crosstrek I definitely recommend going with it over the Draw-Tite # 36644. Curt has a great reputation when it comes to trailer hitches and we have actually found that their hitches tend to have better welds and a thicker powder coat which combined means they hold up better than the Draw-Tite versions. I would like to point out that the...

  • Why Is The Stealth Hitch 391SUCT18 Not Verified For The 2022 Subaru Crosstrek
    Hello Jim. The Stealth Hitch # 391SUCT18 is not verified for the 2022 Subaru Crosstrek because the manufacturer specifies it will only for the 2018-2021 Crosstrek models. Unfortunately, Stealth Hitch does not make a hitch for the 2022 - present Subaru Crosstrek. We actually had a few reps from Stealth Hitch here a couple weeks ago and I brought this up. We get a lot of Subaru owners asking us about stealth hitches and I was curious why they stopped making hitches for a lot of Subaru models...

  • Hitch Recommendation For 2020 Subaru Crosstrek
    Yes there is a hitch fit for you to carry your bike rack with Stealth Hitches Rack Receiver part # 391SUCT18 for the 2020 Subaru Crosstrek. The Stealth Hitch is a completely hidden design because of it's removable receiver tube. When the hitch is not in use you can easily remove the receiver tube, when it's time to carry the bike rack reinsert it into the quick latching mechanism and it locks in. The latching mechanism is a tight connection so you won't experience any rattling like with...

  • Availability of Trailer Hitch for 2020 Subaru Crosstrek
    Yes, for your 2020 Subaru CrossTrek there are a couple hitch assemblies available from Stealth that are confirmed to fit and will work great. If you only plan on using the hitch for accessories like a bike rack or cargo carrier, the Stealth # 391SUCT18 will work perfectly. If you think you will tow a trailer from time to time as well you will want the Stealth # 391SUCT18T instead, which also includes the needed ball mount component AND wiring for towing. These are extremely durable...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch Options for 2020 Subaru Crosstrek
    The trailer hitches are finished with a durable powder coating. The Curt and Draw-Tite hitches are welded together from tube stock and flat steel that are very similar. In my opinion, Curt does a tiny bit better job with their powder coat application. When given the choice, I always recommend using a Class Ill hitch because there's a much greater selection of hitch mounted accessories available for the more common 2 inch Class III receiver. Although the Curt # C13382 and Draw-Tite # 76209...

  • Best Looking Hitch on the 2020 Subaru XV Crosstrek
    I really like the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Matte Black Finish - Class III - 2" part # e98912 . This hitch offers really easy installation and is mainly hidden with just the receiver tube opening being exposed (see photo). This one has a lot of bang for the buck when comparing it to others because it can be used for towing or for recreational use(bike racks, cargo carriers, etc.) The Stealth Hitches Trailer Hitch Receiver w/ Towing Package - Custom Fit - 2" part...

  • Recommended Hidden Hitch for 2021 Subaru Crosstrek Hybrid
    The only concealed crosstube/hidden trailer hitch options for a 2021 Subaru Crosstrek Hybrid are the EcoHitch Stealth Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 306-X7365 and Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver part # 391SUCT18. These options both have a concealed crosstube as well as removable receiver tube. The main differences is that the Stealth uses a hand knob and the EcoHitch requires a tool.

  • Is the Stealth Hitch for a 2020 Subaru Crosstrek Completely Hidden
    Yes, when you do not have the receiver portion of the Stealth Hitches Rack Receiver # 391SUCT18 on your 2020 Subaru Crosstrek, the hitch is totally hidden - visually it's the same as not having a hitch on at all. Keep in mind there are a couple of different options for a Stealth Hitch for your 2020 Subaru Crosstrek depending on if you just want a receiver for accessory use or also want to tow; which requires a separate kit. Here are the options for your 2020 Subaru Crosstrek: - For Bike...

  • Will Stealth Hitches # 391SUCT18 Fit a 2020 Subaru Crosstrek Hybrid?
    We do have some hitches available for your 2020 Subaru Crosstrek Hybrid, but unfortunately the Stealth Hitches # 391SUCT18 has not been fit tested yet on the hybrid model. This means that it might fit, but the manufacturer hasn't been able to test it on your vehicle so there's no way to know for sure. The only hitch available that has been confirmed to fit your hybrid model is the Draw-Tite # 76209. This a Class III hitch with a 2" receiver and has a gross towing weight capacity of 4,500...

  • Best Bike Rack And Trailer Hitch Receiver For Carrying 2 Electric Bikes On A 2021 Subaru Crosstrek
    Since your 2021 Subaru Crosstrek has a max tongue weight of 200lbs you do not want to exceed that. If you came up with 190lbs by adding your 2 electric bikes and a bike rack together, then you will be fine since it is still under the 200lb weight capacity of your vehicle. The Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver 2" # 391SUCT18 is confirmed to fit all models of the 2021 Crosstrek and has a high enough weight capacity to suit your needs. Typically, frame-mount is a more secure and safer...

  • Installation Time for a Stealth Hitch on a 2020 Subaru Crosstrek
    According the the installation guide, which I have linked for you, this should take approximately two hours to install. Please note that this hitch is only intended for hitch-mounted accessories such as bike racks, and not for towing. If you are interested in using this hitch for towing, then we offer the required towing kit, part # 391CONVOC5. If you were wanting to use the hitch to transport bikes, then be sure to take a look at our catalog of 2-inch racks. I've linked this as well.

  • Concealed Trailer Hitch For 2020 Subaru Crosstrek To Carry Bike Rack
