I would be happy to help you. We have those items and I was able to get the measurements for you. I have attached pictures detailing the specific dimensions you have asked for. The Curt Hitch Receiver Item # 13250 fits the 118 inch wheelbase with single rear wheels,140 inch wheelbase with single rear wheels, and 158 inch wheelbase with single rear wheels on 2005 Dodge Sprinters. The Draw-Tite Hitch Receiver item # 75210 fits 2005 Dodge Sprinters with a 140 inch wheelbase with single rear wheels and the 158 inch wheelbase with single rear wheels. The difference in measurements between the two hitch receivers is the mounting positions. The Curt item # 13250 mounts inside the frame. The Draw-Tite item # 75210 attaches outside the frame.

Hi Tl, I checked each of the hitches that fit your 2005 Sprinter, and they do all require relocating the spare tire. That's true for both the Class III Curt Trailer Hitch #13250 and Class IV Curt Trailer Hitch #14250.

Answer 4

For use with a 2-inch hitch bike carrier I recommend the Curt Class III hitch #13250 as it is a confirmed fit on your 2004 Dodge Sprinter with step bumper and 140-inch wheelbase. Class IV hitch #14250 fits your van too but for use with a bike rack…
