Specs:
Draw-Tite's Tested Tough program provides testing standards far superior to those outlined by the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE), the go-to source for engineering professionals.
Each Draw-Tite trailer hitch receiver undergoes extensive fatigue testing and static testing with the ball mount that is either supplied or recommended for use with that particular hitch, thus ensuring results that are applicable to real life use. Fatigue testing is also conducted on hitches rated for use with weight-distribution systems.
In addition, Draw-Tite performs static testing on a simulated automobile, as opposed to the rigid fixture used for SAE testing, resulting in a more true-to-life scenario.
At etrailer.com we're committed to the products we sell, and to our customers. Our experienced and knowledgeable staff are available via both phone and email to address your questions and concerns for the lifetime of your hitch. The technicians at etrailer perform hitch installations on a daily basis, making them a valuable resource for do-it-yourselfers. The one-on-one, personal service you'll receive comes straight from an expert in the towing and automotive field. We've installed it, we've wired it and we've towed with it, so whatever your question, we can answer it.

This has worked out well and was easy to install. Been a year plus and have towed a lot with it and also carried motorcycles on racks. Thank you for a great product that holds up to actually being used. Kent
Great hitch at a great price with easy install. This trailer hitch was a snap to put in right out of the box. You'll need to lift-support both sides of it as you line up and install the first (either) side--my wife held one side as I installed the other.
It is solidly built and fit our Sprinter exactly as advertised. A simple installation as well. Good stuff!
Fit the 2021 Sprinter with the no drill mount perfectly. Good not have asked for more.
This was actually used on a new 2019 Sprinter which is a different body style but the inner frame work is still the same as the 2007-2018 2500 versions with factory rear step. Fits fine, a bit snug on the frame rails due to the undercoating used on the van but it works. I would coat the hardware in either paint or some grease to help with corrosion after installation as it uses the yellow zinc and bright zinc coated hardware which does not handle corrosive environments well. Packaging of the hitch could have been a bit better, there was some paint touch up needed where the plastic wrapped around the bar for shipping wore off but everything was there when unwrapping it.
It is a good option to retain the factory step though I believe Mercedes is releasing a hitch bar that would work with the factory bumper step.
Pretty simple to install, took about an hour to setup. Pulled a 1966 Chevy C10 with my Sprinter. The quality is very good and of course shipping was fast.
Installed on a 2020 Sprinter Cargo with factory rear step. I used two wooden stools to help me position and hold the hitch in place while I tightened up the nuts and bolts. Best part, if you have a 1-Up USA bike holder, it will not obstruct the backup sensors and will not block your license plate.
The receiver mounted very easily to my sprinter took about 20 minutes. I would highly recommend this unit.
Very easy to install.
Great hitch. Fairly easy install even with the Sprinter factory step. Make sure you have a decent riser setup to position the hitch for installation (my old tire/wood block riser setup wasn’t pretty but worked for my solo install).
Perfect fit, easy install
Easy install. No modifications needed. I strongly recommend it.
Fit great. 30 minutes - 1 hour install depending on ability. I was able to get one side hung and used a bar to pop the other side past the frame into place. Two people would make it a bit easier. Need 18 and 19mm sockets and wrenches.
Looks great! Installed in about 30min on my 2014 2500 sprinter passenger van.
Super fast delivery and excellent customer service!
Fits 2020 Sprinter Passenger. Fairly easy install if you have power tools and drop spare tires. Tight fit around exhaust tip but fits.
Problem was packaging from etrailer. The hitch was delivered in plastic wraps without any protection in corners. I understand hitch is usually not visible from outside however Sprinter van hitch sticks out so Ill have to touch up all the banged up corners. They could’ve simply add cardboard just around the corners.
Fits perfectly, installation was simple. Great price.
Solid build as I would expect from DrawTite. Installation was easy. Needed to buy additional bolts ($95) because Sprinter Factory bolts were removed by previous owner.
Good solid unit, easy install. The one thing I’m disappointed by is the finish of the product. The paint or powder coat could be better, because of this likely would not buy again.The hardware sent with it rusted as well as some rust on the hitch itself that I’ve had to touch up. Metal must not have been prepped properly. And where we live it’s rains, didn’t snow much and they don’t salt the roads

Over time the hitch will be hit with road debris that will lead to rust in rainy conditions. I recommend touching up the hitch with a rust resistant paint which you will have on hand for regular hitch maintenance.

Everything lined up and the advice from the website video with product comparisons was very helpful.
Exactly what I ordered and arrived in t ime
I think the packaging could have been better. the piece came wrapped on plastic, but it is so heavy that the hitch ends rubbing out of it. the instructions are ok, but the video is awesome. once you watch that video, you know exactly what you have in front of you. The kit came with almost everything I needed with the exception of a few wire ties and a connector (disclosed on the video).
The item looks great, they emailed me tracking info and it even showed up before they promised. I would buy form etrailer again in no time!

Great hitch for our use (bike rack on the back of our Sprinter van). Can't speak to towing. Went in with no problems. The van conversion shop near us wanted $500 + labor to install basically the same hitch. This was a no brainer.
Easy Peasy. FAST SHIPPING!!! It arrived 5 days earlier than expected. I had it installed in under 30 minutes. I didn't time it but it felt like it. I installed it by myself. I took the three bolts that were already installed for my factory step and turned them around one at a time. You can't push them all the way thru, only to the edge of the frame so the hitch will slide up. I ran the new bolt that was supplied all the way thru on one side then I had to convince the other side to go up due to the undercoating. I pushed the second bolt thru on the second side and it was uphill after that. The three original bolts were tight so I had to use a socket wrench to get them to go thru the holes. I do have two complaints. The bumper was shipped wrapped in plastic only. The paint was scrapped off the hard edges towards the back. Nothing that a can of spray paint can't fix. The other issue was one of the nuts supplied was a M10x1.5 instead of the M12x1.5 needed. A trip to Lowes and $1.00 later and it was fixed. We are moving this weekend so I will be using the new hitch real soon. Thanks E-Trailer.
Very good price. Quick delivery. Easy install. Customer service was knowledgeable when I called and helped me figure out the exact receiver hitch for my Sprinter van
