Whatever the next checkpoint is on your adventure -- whether it's getting your bike on the trail before sunrise or making it to the campground before dark -- CURT class 2 hitches let you Bring It with confidence. These receiver hitches are made to handle most light-duty towing applications and offer a custom fit for your vehicle. Typically used on full-size cars, crossovers, compact SUVs, minivans or even compact pickup trucks, a CURT class 2 trailer hitch complements the design of smaller vehicles. This particular class 2 hitch is made to be a custom hitch for certain years of the Subaru Legacy (to verify vehicle compatibility, see application info). It offers a weight carrying capacity of 3,500 lbs. GTW and 350 lbs. TW. Class 2 trailer hitches can typically be used to tow a variety of lightweight trailers, such as a small utility trailer, small fishing boat trailer or popup camper (NOTE: Never exceed the lowest weight capacity of any towing component). They are also perfect for adding cargo space to your vehicle with a bike rack or cargo carrier. This class 2 hitch features a 1-1/4" receiver tube to accept a ball mount shank or other hitch-mounted accessory. For safety, it is tested in accordance with SAE J684. A custom trailer hitch design requires extra care, and as such, CURT class 2 hitches are engineered using real vehicles and hands-on research. We use high-strength steel, robotic welding and rigorous testing to produce hitches that are built to fit your lifestyle. To ensure that each hitch will be a reliable extension of your vehicle, we also finish our hitches in a co-curing of liquid A-coat and black powder coat, giving them long-lasting rust and wear resistance.
If your vehicle is not equipped with wiring for towing a trailer, CURT custom wiring is the ideal solution. A custom wiring harness -- also called a T-connector -- is a simple, plug-and-play electrical device that plugs into your automotive electric system and provides a standard, universal trailer wiring connection. This is done using two or more vehicle-specific, OEM-compatible connectors to plug into the taillight assembly, eliminating the need for cutting, splicing and soldering during installation. Custom wiring harnesses are made vehicle-specific, and while they are not available for all vehicles, they do offer one of the fastest, easiest and most secure ways to wire a vehicle for towing. This particular plug-in harness provides a 4-way flat connector socket and is designed to be a custom wiring harness to fit certain years of the Subaru Legacy sedan (to verify your vehicle compatibility, see application info). It comes with all necessary wiring components to establish a reliable trailer wiring connection, as well as a dust cover to keep the connector clean when not in use. You have a picture in mind of your next destination -- maybe it's the boat landing at your favorite fishing spot, maybe it's a campsite that overlooks one of nature's masterpieces, or maybe it's the next big jobsite. However, turning that picture into a reality takes more than just daydreaming. It takes a solid connection and the right amount of power. CURT custom wiring is made with some of the most sophisticated technology in the industry and is designed to install with ease, giving you a long-lasting electrical connection for your towing hitch setup.

The kit includes a T-connector harness with yellow and green wire ends, a black converter box, double-sided tape, cable ties, an eyelet, a screw, and a 4-flat wire connector. The yellow wire end connects to the driver's side taillight, the green wire end to the passenger side, and the 4-flat wire routes to the center of the vehicle for trailer connection.
Open the trunk and remove the spare tire compartment cover, jack storage tray, and rear scuff panel (by removing plastic fasteners and pulling up). On both sides, remove the cargo loops holding the felt trunk liner in place, then pull back the trunk liner to access the vehicle's taillight wiring harness.
On the driver's side, carefully separate the vehicle's taillight connectors without damaging the locking tabs. Insert the T-connector end with the yellow wire between the separated connectors, then fully insert both connectors and lock the tabs in place. Repeat this process on the passenger side using the green wire end of the T-connector.
Drilling is optional. Locate a suitable grounding point near the connector, such as an existing screw with nut in the vehicle's frame. If no existing point is available, drill a 3/32" hole and secure the white wire using the eyelet and screw provided. Before drilling, verify that no miscellaneous items are hidden behind or under the surface to avoid damage and personal injury.
Adhere the black converter box to the frame of the car using the double-sided tape provided in the kit.
Route the 4-flat wire to the center of the vehicle and out the trunk when in use. When not in use, roll it up and store it in an out-of-the-way location in the trunk.
The white wire is the ground wire. It must be secured to a suitable grounding point near the connector, either to an existing screw with nut in the vehicle's frame or to a newly drilled 3/32" hole using the eyelet and screw provided.
Basic tools include a screwdriver (for removing plastic fasteners and securing the ground wire screw). If you choose to drill a ground hole, you will need a drill with a 3/32" bit. The manual does not specify additional tools required.
Secure any loose parts of the T-connector with the cable ties provided in the kit.
Before drilling, verify that miscellaneous items are not hidden behind or under any surface. Drilling into hidden wiring, fuel lines, or other components can cause damage and personal injury.
Reinstall everything you removed during installation, including the rear scuff panel, cargo loops, felt trunk liner, jack storage tray, and spare tire compartment cover.
Yes, the Curt 56091 is designed for the Subaru Legacy. Confirm your specific model year with the retailer or manufacturer.
No. Drilling is optional—only if no existing grounding point (screw with nut) is available in the vehicle's frame. If you drill, use a 3/32" bit and verify no hidden items are behind the surface first.
The manual does not specify installation time. Contact the manufacturer or retailer for an estimate.
Verify that no miscellaneous items (wiring, fuel lines, etc.) are hidden behind or under the surface where you plan to drill.
