Best Solution to Prevent Suspension Sagging of 2020 Subaru Outback Wagon With Cargo Carrier
Published 09/14/2022
Question:
Hello! I currently own a Curt Cargo Carrier attached to hitch, I believe it is a 2inch on my 2020 Subaru outback. I do have trouble w/ ground clearance at times when my car is fully load I am a travel nurse with most of my belonging stuffed in my car. I was wondering if there was an extender you sell to help w/ ground clearence?

The best solution is going to be to add suspension enhancement to the rear suspension of your 2020 Subaru Outback Wagon with the SumoSprings kit part # CSS-1125R. This will prevent the sag in the rear of the vehicle when it is loaded which will then also prevent the carrier from getting closer to the ground. There isn't a great hitch adapter to add additional lift to a hitch accessory because they end up cutting the capacity of the hitch by 50 percent and since they add more leverage on the hitch the sagging would get worse.
