Expert Answers about Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500


  • Is There A Swing Away Adapter That Allows A Bike Rack To Clear The Rear Slide On Motorhome?
  • I have a swing away bike rack that will work for you, but there are not any individual swing away adapters compatible with motorhomes. Your best option is the Thule Apex Swing XT Bike Rack for 4 Bikes - 2" Hitches - Swinging # TH9027XT. This holds up to 4 bikes and is approved for motorhome use. The carrier swings away from the receiver to the passenger side, allowing for access to the trunk on most vehicles. I will mention that we have not tested this on a motorhome with a rear slide,...

  • Recommended Rear Anti-Sway Bar for 2022 Winnebago View 24D

  • Can Upgraded ModuLite Harness 119190 Be Installed On 2016 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500 Motorhome?
  • Since the Upgraded ModuLite Wiring Harness # 119250KIT is a universal harness it can indeed be used to add a 4-way connector to your 2016 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500 motorhome to tow your 2012 Honda CR-V.

  • Tire Chain Recommendation for 2016 Mercedes Sprinter 3500
  • We have the Titan tire chains part # TC4219CAM which are a fit for the tire size you have on your Sprinter of 215/85-16 and would work great. These are a twist link style of chain which means it would be a little smoother and these are a dually design so they will cover both tires on either side of the vehicle. If breaking up ice was the priority over ride you would instead want the V-bar part # TC4819CAM, or if deep snow the square link # TC4219SCAM.

  • How To Carry E-Bikes and Flat-Tow a Vehicle on the Back of an RV
  • In order to both carry bikes and flat-tow a vehicle at the same time, you'd need to use an adapter on the motorhomes hitch, I recommend the Roadmaster Dual Hitch Receiver Adapter like part # RM-077-2 as it's designed for this exact purpose. In order to choose the correct one, you'll need to make sure your tow bar is within 3" of level while using the adapter. The above offers a 2-1/4" drop but if you need a different one you can choose from the list below. If you don't know how much drop...

  • How To Pull Prius With Motorhome While Carrying Two Trikes
  • In order to tow your 2017 Prius Prime with your 2020 Class C motorhome I would get the Roadmaster Tow Dolly with Electric Brakes - 4,250 lbs # RM-2050-1. This can handle up to 4,250lbs which will cover your Prius' curb weight of 3,365lbs. The dolly weighs 545lbs so the combined weight will still be under the 5,000lb towing capacity of your motorhome. This dolly has integrated electric brakes so you will want to make sure you have a brake controller in your motorhome. If you do not have...

  • Draw Tite Hitch Fit Recommendation for 2016 Mercedes Sprinter 3500 with 144 inch Wheelbase
  • I believe you meant to type 366.5 cm wheelbase as that would equal 144 inches which the Draw Tite hitch part # 75549 would be a fit for your 2016 Mercedes Sprinter if you didn't have the factory step bumper. If you did have the factory step bumper you would want the part # 75601.

  • The Curt trailer wiring harness part # C59496 is a universal style 4-way kit that can be used on vehicles like your 2019 Mercedes Sprinter 3500. Since the Sprinter has standard wiring but the RV has LED lights it could work as long as you connect to wiring that for sure was designed to power incandescent lights.

  • Suspension Enhancement Recommendation for 2018 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500 Motorhome
  • For your motorhome built on a 2018 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500 we have great suspension enhancement kits available but none that use air bags. Instead the kit I would recommend is the SumoSprings kit part # SSF-106-47 which is similar to the Timbren but won't be as harsh of a ride. This will help brace the rear suspension which will help the vehicle ride better and not have quite as much body roll. If you haven't driven the motorhome yet I'd recommend doing so first. There's no rule that...

  • For your 2022 Mercedes Sprinter 3500 Class C we have rear sway bars like the Roadmaster part # RM-1209-131 but we do not have any front sway bar options. The rear bars make the biggest improvement in ride quality though so that would be still a really great recommendation I could make.
