So basically trying to get tow bar for 1999 Subaru Forester SF5 Turbo and told by various irish/uk companies don't have one for Turbo model but do for N/A models.

Have done alot of research and found germany company stocking tow bar for Turbo model but that also fits N/A model.

Can anyone tell for certain that the Turbo model is different to N/A model for tow bars, no info anywhere to suggest they are different. Have they different rear subframe 🤔

Now tow bars can be got for Turbo models as my last forester had one.

Many thanks

Kieran

You won't believe this colm but found one of the above towbars for sale on adverts!, bought in error for sg forester and is for sf fitment , collected it tonight, complete with 7 pin wiring kit at great price, result , thanks for assistance 👍
 
Ok, just fyi , turbo forester IS DIFFERENT to N/A forester for tow bars.

The tow bar I bought was for NA forester

Same mounting points but different diameter and lenght bolts. Rear anti roll bar gets in way also , had to cut away small bit of tow bar mounting brackets on both sides to fit around anti roll bar brackets,

Anyway it's on perfect now
