Trailer Hitch For 2016 Subaru Outback That Won't Interfere With Rear Shocks

Published 11/06/2023

Question:

I am looking for a tow hitch for a 2016 subaru outback wagon 3.6. I have Ironman shocks/coils that lifted the vehicle 2 in from stock stance. Some reviews indicate tow hitch may interfere with the swing arm or rear suspension on the vehicle with this shock system. Can you recommend a product that will not cause any contact or issues with the Ironman lifted suspension on my outback? Thanks in advance for your recommendation .

For a trailer hitch on your 2016 Subaru Outback Wagon that won't interfere with the shocks use the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13410.

This hitch installs via the bumper and not the underside of your Subaru, which is why there won't be any interference. I have added links below to both a video install and the instructions for you to take a look at.
