Question:

I need to install the C13410 hitch on the 2019 Subaru Outback wagon but I can't find an installation video. I have easily found installation videos in the past I don't know why I am having such trouble. I would like to watch the video before I purchase.

I have attached an installation video and instructions of the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C13410 on a 2019 Subaru Outback Wagon. The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C13410 is a great option because it doesn't require drilling to install compared to the other options. It is also a concealed cross tube design so the only portion of the hitch that is visible once installed is the receiver square. I have also attached a couple photos for your reference.

If you need wiring, I recommend T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector part # 118467. The Tekonsha brand wiring has proven to be a bit more reliable than the other options for wiring. This particular harness has a 5.6 amps per circuit rating so it can handle more power to protect your electrical system. I have attached an installation video of the wiring as well.

If you plan on doing some towing, I recommend to look into the 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 you are not sure how much rise/drop you may need in a ball mount to tow your trailer level, I recommend to take a look at the helpful article I have attached about how to figure the amount of rise or drop you may need.
