Expert Reply:

If you wanted to use the mounting bracket part # C92CR on the hitch you have installed on your 2016 Subaru Outback Wagon you would also need the bracket part # C57202 so that you wouldn't have to do any drilling. If you instead want a 7-way bracket then I recommend # HM48625.

The # C57202 wraps around the hitch tube to provide a mounting bracket for the # C92CR or # HM48625.

The hitch I would use on your vehicle would be the Draw-Tite part # 75673 because it is a Class III hitch that will have great towing capacities and great flexibility for future hitch accessories.

If you wanted to do some towing you might be interested in etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop. It also includes a 1-7/8 inch ball, 2 inch ball, hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag.

If the ball mount kit does not include a ball mount with the right rise or drop to tow the trailer level, check out the link I have included that explains how to measure to choose a ball mount to tow the trailer level.

For trailer wiring you would then want the part # 118467. I attached an install video for you to check out as well.
