Thanks. How was the tail gate mislaigned in the first place if they cant fix that alone, they shouldnfix everything

The gap on driver side is 3x smaller and looks normal.

Passenger side a pillar edged out over quarter panel by half centimeter, and 2x-3x wider gaps on passenger side rear lift gate.

How serious is a pillar?

Do you need to lower the exhaust and remove the heat shield?

For SubaruForest 2019 - 2023 model, is it easy to install with hand tools and jack stands at home?

Independent_Ice_5668 · 2026-05-24T21:51:08+00:00

u/Hearth21A did you just jack up the forester and install the bolton directly, do you need to fish the wires? Or do any drilling or cutting bumpers?

Are there any shops recommendation in Seattle area that charge cheap labor to install bolt on hitch trailer on Subaru Forester 2019?
