They make it easy to hitch up and Bring It, offering a vehicle-specific fit and the weight capacity to handle a variety of trailers. Custom class 3 hitches are the most common type of receiver hitch for pickup trucks and SUVs. Because of their weight range, they are also found on full-size cars, crossovers and minivans. Each custom-fit class 3 hitch package is made for vehicle-specific mounting. This particular kit fits certain years of the Subaru Forester (see application info to verify vehicle compatibility). It provides a weight carrying capacity of 3,500 lbs. GTW and 525 lbs. TW. CURT class 3 trailer hitches are typically used to attach and haul utility trailers, boat trailers, campers, snowmobile or ATV haulers and more (NOTE: Never exceed the lowest-rated towing component). Each class 3 hitch has a 2" receiver tube and is tested in accordance with SAE J684 for safety. To ensure that CURT class 3 receiver hitches have what it takes for serious trailering, they are designed using a hands-on approach and are constructed with rugged, high-strength steel and precise welding. We also protect our class 3 hitches in a co-cured finish of liquid A-coat and black powder coat for superior resistance to rust, chipping and UV damage. Review: Perfect fit for my Forester and incredibly easy to install! - I purchased this CURT Class 3 hitch for my Subaru Forester, and I am extremely impressed with the quality and fit. The best part by far was the ease of installation. Since it features a vehicle-specific bolt-on design, everything lined up perfectly with the factory holes—no drilling or major modifications were needed. I was able to get it mounted securely in my driveway with basic tools in no time at all. Once installed, the concealed main body looks fantastic. You really only see the 2-inch receiver sticking out, so it doesn't ruin the clean look of the SUV's rear end. With a 3,500 lb towing capacity, it feels incredibly sturdy and is more than capable of handling a heavy-duty bike rack or a utility trailer. If you are looking to add a reliable hitch to your Forester without a massive headache, this is the one to buy. Highly recommended!
