Does the etrailer hitch model E25TR fits all 2022 Outbacks, including the Outback Wilderness? If so, do instructions detail on where/how the bumper needs to be cut, specifically for the Wilderness model?

When it comes to installing a trailer hitch on your 2022 Subaru Outback Wagon The etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Matte Black Finish - Class III - 2 inch # e25TR is confirmed to fit your vehicle per the manufacturer.

The trailer hitch installation is 100% like the Curt Hitch # C67JR. I will put the Curt hitch installation video below.

The etrailer hitch has a bolt-on installation with no welding required. It has a gloss black powder coat finish over a protective base coat that offers superior rust resistance. The hitch has a maximum gross trailer weight up to 3,500 pounds and has a maximum tongue weight up to 350 pounds. I would recommend checking your vehicle's manual to know the proper towing capacity for your vehicle.

The T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # 118467 has a 4 flat connector that will allow your trailer's brake, stop, and turn lights mirror your vehicle's brake, stop, and turn lights. This custom connector plugs into your vehicle's wiring harness, which is located in your cargo area, either behind the driver's-side trim panel or in the spare tire compartment.

To finish up your towing experience I recommend The Curt Starter Towing Kit # C45534. This kit will include the ball mount, the 2 inch hitch ball, and other starter towing accessories needed.

I attached a couple installation video links below.
