  • Trailer Hitch Availability for 2005 Mercedes-Benz E-Class E-320 Sedan
  • For the 2005 Mercedes-Benz E-Class E-320 sedan Curt offers their light-duty 1-1/4-inch Class I hitch # C11701. I confirmed its fit with my contact at Curt. This does NOT fit vehicles with the sport package, please note. If you plan to use the hitch for a bike or cargo carrier be sure to select a compatible Class I-rated accessory, such as the Kuat Transfer 2 Bike Platform Rack # KU74FR or the Curt Cargo Carrier # C18145.

  • Installing a Fusion Camera System on a 2017 Winnebago View
  • Yes, this can be adapted to work using the Voyager PWM Filter for Voyager RV Camera Systems, # VGR64VR. But as built, the Furrion Vision S, # FCE48TASL-05 that you linked to will not work on 2016 and newer Mercedes Benz Sprinter chassis with PWM wiring. Hence the need for the PWM filter, # VGR64VR to prevent camera dropouts, it splices into the camera's wiring. I have linked to a video below where Kevin walks through the process on a travel trailer. While your installation is not exactly...

  • Availability of Trailer Wiring Harness for 2012 Mercedes-Benz ML350 BlueTec
  • None of our wiring suppliers offers a trailer wiring harness that is compatible with the electrical system in your 2012 ML350. You will likely have better luck checking with your Mercedes-Benz dealership for a wiring harness that will fit your ML350. If you need ball mounts and hitch balls you might consider the etrailer Ball Mount Kit # 989900 which includes several ball mounts and two hitch balls, pin and clip, all together in a handy carry bag.

  • The only trailer hitch we offer for your 2010 Mercedes-Benz GL450 is the Curt 2-inch Class III hitch # C13102. This hitch presents a fairly involved installation procedure, requiring removal and reattachment of exhaust brackets, exhaust tips, heat shields, and fascia bracket; heat shields may also require trimming.

  • Towing Capacity of Curt Trailer Hitch for 2007 Mercedes E-350
  • The Curt hitch part # C11701 is a confirmed fit for your 2007 Mercedes Benz E-350 and has a towing capacity of 2,500 lbs. You'd have to contact a Mercedes dealer or the owner's manual to determine what the vehicle's towing capacity is and be sure not to exceed the lowest capacity between the hitch and the vehicle. For a ball mount you'd want the part # C45561 and then for wiring you'd want the part # 119250KIT which is a confirmed fit and will work well.

  • Trailer Hitch Availability to Fit 2017 Mercedes Sprinter with Service Body
  • I spoke to my contacts at Curt and Reese and the only styles of hitches that can be made to fit a service body truck like yours are multi-fit RV hitches like the # 41990 that has a 16k capacity. This is a weld on hitch that would require either the 7 inch drop brackets part # 4907 or the 16 inch brackets part # 4916. The rear ends on service bodies are all different dimensions so there's no way to have a hitch fit that works well with that vehicle configuration.

  • Availability of a Front-Mount Hitch for 2011 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter RV
  • We show no front-mount hitches offered for your 2011 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter RV van. I also checked several other model years of this vehicle and none had a confirmed fit for a front-mount hitch. We do of course offer rear-mount hitches and those available for the 2011 Sprinter can be seen on the link provided. The fits will depend on the specific version Sprinter you have. The drop-down menu at the top of the page (Select Vehicle Style) will let you choose your vehicle version to see rear-mount...

  • Class III Trailer Hitch for 2013 Mercedes-Benz GLK-350
  • The 2-inch hitch I recommend for your 2013 Mercedes-Benz GLK-350 is the Draw-Tite # 75774 which includes hardware for its no-drill installation. This is the highest-capacity option. A video is linked for your reference. This hitch has a rating of 600-lbs of tongue weight (TW) which is the downward force on the hitch from what is connected to it. This capacity is plenty for your 350-lb total chair and carrier weight but as you noted ground clearance can become an issue when entering steep...

  • Is there a Brake Controller Wiring Harness for a 2008 Mercedes GL550
  • There isn't an aftermarket brake controller wiring harness that will fit your 2008 Mercedes GL550, so you have a couple of options. First you can see if there is an adapter from a Mercedes dealer with one end that plugs into the port under the dash and the other end with just wires. Then you could wire the controller to that adapter harness. The other option is to determine the functions of the pins in that port using a circuit tester such as # PTW2993 or a meter if you have one. One...

  • Using an Adapter to Tow a Trailer with LED Lights with a 2012 Mercedes GL450
  • Yes. If your trailer with LED lights has a 5-Way or 4-Way flat connector then you would use adapter # C35FR. If the trailer has a 7-Way connector you would need # C57003. These adapters have load resistors in them that provide additional power draw so the vehicle thinks there are incandescent lights on the trailer. The other option is to install load resistors, # DI34ZR, in line on each circuit on the trailer wiring behind its connector. You can also use this method if the resistors in...

  • Curt vs Draw-Tite Hitch Comparison on 2011 Mercedes 3500 Sprinter with Standard Bumper
  • I'd go with the Curt hitch part # C13388 for your 2011 Mercedes 3500 Sprinter with a standard bumper since it has the higher capacity like you mentioned. For a swinging enclosed hitch carrier, the Yakima EXO Swing Away Enclosed Cargo Carrier - 2" Hitches - 10 cu ft - 100 lbs # Y62VR, or the double carrier # Y74ZR would work well for you. This modular system can even be expanded so you can swap a cargo box for a bike rack or ski carrier (sold separately) to match your outdoor adventures. Another...

  • Recommended Ball Mount for 2013 Mercedes GLK with 1-1/4 Inch Hitch Receiver
  • We do have ball mounts that fit 1-1/4" hitch receivers. I have linked you to a page listing all our fixed 1-1/4" ball mounts. You will want to filter these by the size drop or rise you need. I have also linked to a FAQ page on Choosing the Correct Ball Mount. So if you find you need a ball mount with a 2-1/8" rise, you will want part # 3593. This ball mount which includes the pin and clip. If you find you need a 1-7/8" diameter hitch ball you will want part # 19256.
