I'm definitely Not going to put a car on this dolly, but still, I've never towed anything with a Subaru. I have to go 200 miles to put the dolly in storage. I installed one of those "bolt-on the bottom of your bumper" receivers but instead of the bumper (which I removed), I drilled thru the back floor pan and attached it with 4, 1/2 inch bolts and bar-stock straps on top. Kind of a sandwich mouth I guess. Seems strong enough. Initial test drive was uneventful. Braking wasn't effected hardly at all. I'll see how it does at freeway speeds later today.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hammer down brother!!!

Lmao! That trailer is twice the width of the car! No problem seeing that out the mirrors lol.

Why Storage?   I would just drive around town like that.    Cracking me up.

Storage only until next month I'll be towing the Hatch and dolly with a motor home.

 

Except for looking absolutely ridiculous going down the hwy, the trip was no problem at all. With the hitch mounted directly to the back floor pan, it was a little noisy in the cab with all the banging and rattling. But I've noticed that on 3/4 ton pickups with a light dolly. But in the end, I'm gonna remove the hitch and plug the holes put the bumper back on. A Subaru hatchback is obviously Not a tow vehicle. Just 'cause you can do it, don't make it right.

If your hatchie is 4wd, I have read you may want to disconnect the driveshaft from the rear diff when towing.

Nice job on the tow with the hatch.  I thought I was the only one doing that... ha!
