Question:

Have a single exhaust 2010 WRX with an aftermarket exhaust. I know the answer it wont work has been provided, but Im trying to figure out WHY this wont work. Is it contact with a hanger? The exhaust itself? Something else? Im willing to make a modification to not have a hitch receiver showing at all times.

Expert Reply:

The only trailer hitch options we offer for a 2010 Subaru WRX with single exhaust are class I, 1-1/4" like the Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver part # DT24959 which is what I recommend. However, hitches are only designed for factory exhaust so if you have aftermarket you may run into issues and need to make modifications. If you need the larger receiver then your only options are using an adapter, the Trailer Hitch Adapter part # e93YR.

I checked with EcoHitch but the EcoHitch Stealth Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 306-X7261 is not a fit for single exhaust models. I don't know why exactly as they do not provide this but if I had to guess I would say the muffle location is what makes the hitch incompatible.
