Question:
Will there be enough clearance from hitch pin to bumper to use the Thule Vertex 4-bike carrier, tilting style, with the Drawtite Class III hitch on 2017 Subaru Outback Wagon?

Expert Reply:
We installed Draw-Tite Class III hitch # 75673 on a 2017 Subaru Outback wagon and found that the hitch pin hole was 5-inches forward of the back edge of the bumper cover. This is shown in the linked video.
Yakima's FullSwing swing-away bike rack for 2-inch hitches # Y02465 provides over 8-inches of clearance from its hitch pin hole to the foot of the carrier so it will fit nicely and easily clear your bumper when installed in Draw-Tite hitch # 75673.
