2024 Subaru Outback Wilderness model Trailer Hitch Installation, Model e25TR

[@tomcole4736]

I like the design of the bumper mounting with using the factor bumper bolt locations with a tie down bolt inside. But that means its all help in by thread strength and only one shear strength bolt, still seems sufficient for what it will tow and a more solid, stronger fit, than a couple of others I have seen. I dont the electrical hook up. Should have the 4way mount to the hitch outside the truck. Others did that better. Nice video

Thank you. You just made me $400, that my neighbor paid me to install it for him ❤

You need to put the Wilderness model in the video title. It said Outback so I selected this video only to find out it's not for my Outback.

Great video. I watched it about 4 times. And used it to install the Curt version of this hitch today on my 2024 OBW. I also installed the Curt 4 pin brake light harness and routed the plug through the knockout near the factory plug and mounted a bracket underneath. I watched etrailer videos but they were for the style where you had to lower the whole exhaust system. Super easy with little issues. Hardest part was disconnecting the bloody parking sensor connectors. Thanks Dan. Loved your Dabbling in this job. Really Helped.

I just installed the oem hitch and it was a nightmare. It was a 3-part design with welding slag and miss-drilled holes needing a lot of filing to make it go together. Don't even get me started on cutting and fitting the rear bumper fascia. I wish I'd gone with this design, I'd used a very similar one from etrailer on my last Subaru and it was a perfect fit with those same fishing lines for the bolts. You should share the link to this one. Cheers

How long start to finish would you say it took ya? Very nice video too. Thank you

[@dabblinwithdan2895]

A solid hour and a half.

Does the hitch extend past the rear of the vehicle? It's already a tight fit in my garage.

[@dabblinwithdan2895]

Hi, first, thanks for watching. This was a friend's vehicle, and to the best of my knowledge, it did not extend past the rear of the vehicle.

[@vc9743]

@@dabblinwithdan2895 thank you for your reply.

[@boarderm5896]

Was that the Curt 13494 hitch?

[@dabblinwithdan2895]

I looked on etrailer website just now, and I couldn't find the specific name " Curt" on the one I ordered, but other sources on Google show pictures of Curt hitches that look identical.

[@mitchellmyers1719]

No that the etrailer brand hitch. I just received mine. Havent installed but its the same one
