Installation of Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver on 2024 Subaru Outback

The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C69VV does fit the 2024 Subaru Outback Wilderness. Ground clearance will be further reduced at the rear compared to other hitches for the Outback since it has a visible cross tube. Bumper removal is not required, but you will have to lower the exhaust as well as cut a hole in the heat shield.

The installation of a hitch like the # e25TR is more difficult but you will probably be happier with it in the end, especially since you only have to install the hitch once. This design has a concealed cross tube so only the receiver is hanging down at the back. This gives you better clearance and a much cleaner look. The etrailer hitch also has a matte black finish which matches the black trim on the Outback Wilderness.

I have attached the written instructions for the Curt hitch along with an installation video for the etrailer hitch below for your reference.
