For a 2017 Subaru forester Which 2” trailer hitch is the longest as far as coming out from the car?

Expert Reply:
The 2" trailer hitch receiver for a 2017 Subaru Forester that is the least recessed under the bumper is the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # CU64FR. The distance from the center of the hitch pin hole to the outer end of the bumper is about 2". This will in turn give you the most clearance for folding accessories like bike racks and cargo carriers.
I have attached a few lists below with options for all of our folding cargo carriers and bike racks for you as well.
