Rugged, Matte Black Finish

The sturdy steel construction is protected with a matte black finish for added durability. This unique powder coating gives etrailer hitches a carbide-like appearance and a rugged look that sets them apart from traditional glossy hitches. In addition to being rust and corrosion resistant, the tough matte coating hides dirt, scuffs, and dings better than a glossy finish.

Do you have a question about this Trailer Hitch?

Will etrailer Hitch for 2013 Subaru Forester Reduce Ground Clearance
The etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e59AR will reduce the ground clearance on your 2013 Subaru Forester some, but it won't make the vehicle sit lower in the back. The only reason this will sit closer to the ground is because the receiver is the same height as the crosstube.

Correct etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver for a 2013 Subaru Forester
Yes, the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e59AR 2013 is confirmed to fit your Subaru Forester. I really like the matte black finish because it looks more rugged and is more durable than the classic glossy finish we see on all of the other hitches. Then for wiring I recommend picking up the T-One Wiring Harness # 118467 which plugs into your factory wiring plug and then I recommend using the mounting brackets # 18144 and # 18140 to secure the 4-Way near your hitch receiver. To complete...

Replacement Hardware for a 2009-2013 Subaru Forester Trailer Hitch
Hey Mike, thanks for reaching out! To get replacement mounting hardware for a hitch that fits an '09-'13 Subaru Forester, you just need the # RHK kit where you input your hitch number and we'll send you all of the replacement hardware (provided we carry that hitch brand). I will say, the hitches that fit the range of Forester come with plates and bolts that you drop down through the frame with a fish wire - the hitch doesn't install via weld nuts. If you check out the etrailer Trailer...

Is the etrailer Trailer Hitch a Good Option for a 2013 Subaru Forester
Yes, the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e59AR is a great option for your 2013 Subaru Forester. I really like the matte black finish because it looks better and is more durable than the glossy black finish we see on the other hitch receivers. If you don't already have a bike rack I recommend checking out the Hollywood Racks Destination Bike Rack for 4 Bikes # HR4000. I like this rack because it gives you a lot of basic features at a lower price point for a 4-bike rack. Attached is a...

What Hitch Will Work With 2012 Subaru Forester With Prezi Double Muffler
Hello Renea, thanks for reaching out. The etrailer Class 3 Hitch # e59AR will fit the 2012 Subaru Forester with the Prezi double muffler. This hitch was designed to fit all models of the 2012 Forester, and this includes the double exhaust models. The picture below will shows the Curt # 13147 installed on a 2012 Forester with a double muffler. The Curt hitch is structurally identical to the etrailer # e59AR so this is basically exactly what it will look like. The main difference is our...
