Expert Reply:
No, you do not Viktor! The etrailer Trailer Hitch item # e82TR does not require modification of the exhaust when installing it on the 2021 Sprinter 2500. The hitch mounts right next to the muffler.
Please note that the etrailer hitch item # e82TR is specifically designed for the Sprinter's that have the factory step bumper. If yours has the standard bumper you'll need the etrailer item # e76AR.
If you are planning on towing you will also need a wiring harness item # TK82VR and a ball mount kit item # C45534. This wiring harness is for the Sprinter's that do not have the factory tow package.
