Question:

I have a 2013 Outback 2.5 - in need of a trailer hitch. Which of the hitches can be installed without drilling through the frame - with the bumper removed? Thanks.

All of the aftermarket hitches offered for your 2013 Subaru Outback Wagon are shown on the linked page and both 1-1/4-inch Class II and 2-inch Class III hitches are available. All hitches will require some drilling. Of all options I suggest the Draw-Tite 2-inch hitch # 75673 for its more favorable price.

The linked installation video shows you the entire process on a 2013 Outback. It will be necessary to lower the exhaust for easier access to the mounting points. All tools required are noted in the linked instructions.
