• Using the Kuat Pivot on a 2017 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500 with a Step Bumper
• You will need to take a quick measurement to make sure that the Kuat Pivot, part # PVP20B will clear your step bumper.

This will give you your required clearance in order to be able to use the Kuat Pivot. The Kuat Pivot has a minimum clearance of 4-3/4 inches to its nearest part, and your minimum clearance will need to be less than this to be able to use the Kuat Pivot.

• Can Trailer Battery Be Overcharged when Charged from 12 volt Accessory 7-Way Circuit
• When using a 12 volt trailer accessory wire to charge a trailer battery it would be nearly impossible to overcharge it. The max voltage the battery would ever potentially be would be the same voltage of the 12 volt accessory circuit. Also, these circuits generally don't have much amperage because of the smaller gauge wire used from the vehicle battery back to the trailer battery. Long story short, you wouldn't have to worry about overcharging the camper battery. If anything you would be...

• Can Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch # 75549 be Used as a Step on a 2017 Mercedes Sprinter 2500
• The receiver on Draw-Tite trailer hitch # 75549 does stick out past the bumper a few inches on the 2017 Mercedes Sprinter 2500. Take a look at the picture I have included for an example. There isn't a whole lot of space and no grip on the metal receiver so I recommend a hitch step such as # BBS-1102 or, if you will be towing, the Tow & Go Hitch Step for Ball Mounts # RP7060200 as much safer alternatives. I have linked videos on all 3 products for you.
