Does not exist, sorry.
Some have had them made though. Don't tow too much!

There have been some member who have towed motorcycle trailers and it did not harm the tranny, but if loaded to heavy, it could do a number on it.

Subaru OEM Hitch 4 SVX ever built?
Hi, I am a little bit uncertain wether Subaru ever offered an hitch for the SVX. I am sure they don't have it anymore (request @ www.subaruparts.com was negative). In a german forum I read there was one offered but is not available anymore.
In this forum I saw detailed pictures, but I do not know wether this was custom made or OEM. The thing is: Custom made is illegal in Germany (so is 5 speed and that's why I am stuck to EAT4). To get this features approved is expensive. I just want this hitch to carry bikes occasionally. So I am searching for an used Subaru OEM hitch, if there is one... Marcus |

I don't truthfully think they exist. The transmission heats up too much as it is. I don't think the engineers would have allowed such an option.
You mean it's against the law in Germany to make up a hitch. The country with unlimited speed highways? Wow.... I sincerely didn't know that.

I saw one on ebay a while back, guy said he had it made at a hitch dealer. I don't see why trailer hitch would be a problem if you just want to throw a few bikes on. I used to just remove the front wheel and slide it in the trunk with the back seat down.

they dont make them, but you can have a custom made one for around 400-600 dollars is what i was quoted, they have to cut out portions of the rear bumper cover.
