Would Trailer Hitch from 2017 Subaru Forester Fit 2020 Subaru Forester
Updated 07/14/2020 | Published 07/13/2020
Question:
I have the e98839 hitch. Will it fit my 2020 Forester with modifications ? If so, what modifications would I have to make? I had this hitch on my 2017 but got a new Subaru this year.

Expert Reply:
There was a big enough amount of changes between a 2017 Subaru Forester and a 2020 that new hitch fits had to be made. So you wouldn't be able to install the hitch you have now and would need a new hitch like the Draw Tite part # 76271 which is very similar. I attached an install video for more info on this hitch for you to check out as well.
