Question:
Hello, What is the most compatible 2inch trailer hitch I can get that will definitely fit my 2014 Subaru Outback Limited. The subaru dealership is telling me that they will only install a Class1 1.25inch hitch, which is too small for my bike rack. I understand there are other hitches at the 2inch size that are supported on a Subaru Outback. Which models do you have that would work? Thanks

We have many 2" hitches for your 2014 Subaru Outback to fit your bike rack.
While there are many hitches to choose from, I recommend the Draw-Tite 2" Hitch Receiver part # 75673 for your 2014 Subaru Outback. This is confirmed to fit your vehicle by Draw-Tite and we have test fitted the hitch on your 2014 Subaru Outback. I recommend the Draw-Tite Hitch because you will need to use Support Straps # 18050 for all non-trailer loads on the Curt Hitches made for your vehicle. You do not need to use safety straps on the Draw-Tite Hitch, though.
I attached an installation video for the Draw-Tite hitch on a 2014 Subaru Outback you may want to check out. I also attached the installation instructions for the Draw-Tite hitch you may find useful.
