Helpful Expert Reply:
You should not have to relocate the spare on the 158 inch wheelbase models of the 2006 Freightliner Sprinter when installing Curt trailer hitch # 14250. However, it is always a possibility there will be interference because of slight differences amongst vehicles. I have included a link to the installation instructions for you.
To add trailer wiring use # C59496. I also recommend etrailer ball mount kit # EBMK2216. It comes with a ball mount, 2 balls, a hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag.
