This hitch gives you real hauling capability, not just a place to hang a bike rack. With a 6,000 lbs maximum gross trailer weight rating and 600 lbs maximum tongue weight, it’s built for serious towing. If you’re using a weight distribution setup, capacity jumps up to 10,000 lbs GTW and 1,000 lbs tongue weight. The 2" x 2" receiver lets you use the common towing and cargo accessories most folks already own, from ball mounts to carriers and racks.
The hitch is fully welded and designed for bolt-on installation, so there’s no welding needed. It mounts directly to the frame using included hardware for a secure fit. Precision, robotic welding keeps everything aligned for easier installation and dependable strength once it’s on. It’s the kind of setup you can handle in your driveway with basic tools.
The square-tube steel design is tough and corrosion resistant. A gloss black powder coat finish sits on top of a protective base coat for superior rust resistance that holds up against road grime and weather over time. It’s sturdy enough for towing, hauling gear, or carrying heavy accessories without flaking or fading.
This hitch is made to work with standard towing gear. Ball mounts, pins, and clips are sold separately so you can match what you need for your setup. It’s a simple way to expand what your vehicle can do—whether that’s pulling a small trailer, adding a cargo carrier, or loading up bikes for the weekend.

Ratings & Reviews
the Curt hitch for my Sprinter 2500, 144WB is great. It bolts right on and the only questionable part is drilling into the frame with ? drill bit. That a pretty big drill bit and the website doesn't tell you the drill size needed, but does mention "drilling required". Other than that all went smoothly. All hardware provided and the hitch was packaged very well. Hard to beat etrailer for quick and free shipping !
Very solid hitch, well made. It took me about 3 hours to install. Requires drilling two holes on the underside of the vehicle frame, the using a wire to fish the bolts into the frame of the vehicle. I could not accomplish the install until I modified the provided tool by adding an additional two foot section of bailing wire to the provided tool. I had some difficulty with understanding the provided instructions. The instructions could be a little more user friendly. Overall, I am very pleased with the this hitch and how it is installed on the vehicle.
Stout hitch that matches the quality of the factory unit. My van came with a factory hitch which I sold when I installed an aluminess bumper. After realizing the massive flaws with the aluminess bumper I tried to find another factory hitch for a decent price. Failing I bought this. Very impressed with this hitch. My bikes bounce less on this hitch than the factory unit. The 600lb tongue probably has something to do with it either way a great alternate to a very expensive Mercedes’ unit. S always etrailer is a great outfit.
Booked right up with no problems.
Fits the vehicle nicely, but terrible design on the hitch pin location. I had to cut off one of the trailer chain loops to be able to get the hitch pin to go in.
My van had most of the holes pre-drilled.
Got it installed in under an hour with the help of the buddy.
Five stars
I bought this a year ago for my Sprinter and it has worked well. It handled a 5000# car trailer with no problems and I appreciate the minimalist design compared to the factory hitch. I sprayed on an extra layer of bedliner and there hasn't been a speck of rust despite copious salt use in my neck of the woods.
For '09 Sprinter 3500. Good product, good fit. Less prone to rust than other brands.
Includes Grade 8 bolts. With other brands, I have had to purchase grade 8 bolts, because only grade 5 were included.
I only pull fairly light trailers. I wouldn't anticipate any problems with any size trailer.
A tab on the drivers side for the lights plug would be helpful. Self tapping screws in the side worked fine though.
If thread lock tape or liquid was included, that would be nice.
Thanks for providing a quality product and a reasonable price and super fast shipping.
etrailer is always great to do business with.
Thanks,
Keith
Installed on a 2019 Sprinter 4x4 for approximately a year, then removed it to install an Aluminess bumper/receiver/storage box/spare tire kit. There is a lot to like about this Curt receiver. The fit and finish are up to Curt's usual standards, and I like how the Curt receiver required drilling two vertical holes in the subframe to provide additional points of contact for the hitch receiver. I would trust the Curt receiver more than the Aluminess bumper/receiver/etc when towing a trailer with a weight-distribution hitch. However, because we need external storage and a second spare tire more than we need the ultimate Class III receiver, I removed the Curt. This is not a criticism of the Curt, and I don't regret the purchase.
Absolutely flawless.it was the easiest way to order with Brittly.
Great hitch and easy install.
Well thought out and engineered. Quality manufacturing. Please continue to offer and stand behind the best products. ‘NoAmazon’ for me. Straight to eTrailer.
Excellent instructions and fitment
Easy to follow instructions. Feels solid can’t wait to to it to use
The fit is great and it looks good. I would give five stars, but the packaging allowed it to get scraped during delivery. You might consider adding a touchup kit.
The hitch mount was very easy to install! I have never had to fish a bolt through a frame before and that ended up being pretty straightforward. I had to buy a 5/8" metal bit to drill the holes which was easy enough. I do wish the directions mentioned what size bit to buy, but since the bolts are 1/2", it would make sense anything larger than 1/2" would work. Overall, great product from etrailer and an even better experience! Nice work team! Also, shoutout to Carol C for the follow up email!
Super easy install and perfect fit for my 2019 Sprinter 2500. Given that my intended use for the hitch was to attach a bike rack or additional storage, versus towing, I did not install the additional bolts that require drilling. Looks great, low profile
The product is solid, like every other hitch I've got from etrailer.com.
It was easy to install on my 2019 Sprinter van 2500. The instructions were straight forward and it didn't take a very long time to install the hitch (Maybe 20min total)
I really like the way it seats underneath the bumper
Greta fit. Easy Install. Quick shipping. Did exactly what I needed it to. Seems well manufactured. Company was very responsive.

1 year later, still a great fit, product has held up well. Has been used regularly and required no maintenance.
I've ordered a couple products from etrailer.com in the past and as usual their customer service is Outstanding! This time I ordered the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver (Item # C13388) for my 2023 Sprinter 144 Crew van. Paul B and Teresa T were very quick in returning my emails and calls when I received the first hitch in damaged condition. They apologized for the inconvenience and sent me a replacement immediately. Unfortunately the replacement hitch was also damaged on most of the edges, but not as extensive as the first shipment. Both times the shipping box was blown out on each side in multiple places. I learned from talking with Paul B at etrailers.com that the damage to the edges of the hitch originates from the way the manufacturer ships the product to them in a stacked arrangement. Don't be surprised if your hitch arrives protruding from the box in multiple places from bouncing around unpadded inside during shipment. I think some extra cardboard padding on all the steel edges and/or a more heavy duty shipping box would help greatly.
Be prepared to repaint several spots on your new hitch, unless you want the rusting process to begin prematurely.
5-stars for customer service. 3-stars for product arrival.
The hitch itself is fairly straightforward to mount. For this design/model I would recommend an initial "mock-up" mounting of the hitch so you can accurately mark and drill the two under-frame holes for the 1/2" carriage bolts. Dropping the spare tire isn't necessary, but you will want to disconnect the exhaust pipe from the hanger and secure it off to the side to allow room to work. I would also suggest to drill the two under-frame holes 5/8"- 11/16" to make the "fishing" process of the spacer and 1/2" carriage bolt go much smoother. Drilling the frame with a metal bit goes much easier than expected. The instructions do not give any guidance as to what size these holes should be drilled. Install did not take more than 1hr including drilling.
This fits a 2020 MBZ Sprinter 4x4 with aftermarket Backwoods Adventure rear bumper. etrailer team was super helpful as I was unsure this would fit. They helped with measurements and info I needed for clearance of bumper as I never had the factory bumper to compare with. Thanks etrailer team.
Pretty straightforward installation
Appreciate the paper installation instructions, which seems to be rare these days
Ordering was simple. Order arrived when expected and I was able to get in installed by one of the installers listed on website. All in the matter of a few days. I think I ordered it Monday arrived Wednesday got it installed Thursday. Just in time for the move on Saturday.
