Question:

Hello, I would like to know the weight for item Code: e98838

asked by: Isis R

Expert Reply:

the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e98838 you mention weighs 35-lbs.

This hitch is also confirmed to fit your 2017 Subaru Crosstrek, and has a maximum towing capacity of 3,500-lbs, as welll as a maximum towing capacity of 525-lbs.

You'll want to consult your vehicle owner's manual for your vehicle's maximum towing capacity and compare the rating to the trailer hitch, and utilize the lowest rating between the two, that way you don't overload your vehicle.

Finally, if you're interested in a complete towing setup, you're also going to need wiring # C56040, and a ball mount kit like # 989899.
