Yes, when towing with your 2019 Subaru Outback Wagon you will need a trailer wiring harness. For that the best option is the really easy to install and very reliable Tekonsha part # 118467. This plugs in easily at the back of the vehicle.

I attached an install video for this for you to check out as well on similar 2019 Outback.

The etrailer ball mount kit # 989900 is a really solid solution for ball mounts and hitch ball. 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.
