Question:

Hi there, we have a 2022 Mercedes Sprinter 2500 4x4 and we need a towing hitch on it. The van already has wire harness so we would also need connector socket. Can you recommend a good hitch with 10,000 lb towing capacity. Im attaching two photos since the van already has a rear running board on the back.

Expert Reply:

The trailer hitch I recommend for a 2022 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500 with factory step bumper is the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver part # e82TR which offers a direct bolt-on fit so there's no drilling required. This trailer hitch is rated up to 7,500 lbs which is the highest available for this vehicle. The max the vehicle can tow is 5,000 lbs so there is no need to go much further over this.

In regards to the trailer wiring, I recommend the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness part # TK22115 which you'll also need the Mounting Bracket part # 18138 and Curt No-Drill Bracket part # C57202 for to secure everything.

Don't forget the Curt Towing Starter Kit part # C45534 to finish your setup.
