The closest tire size we have to what you are looking for is a 175/80-13 which measures 24.1" diameter x 7" wide. This new size will be 2.8" larger in diameter and 1.3" larger in width than the 145/R12 tires that you have now. Please note that only half of this measurement will be applied to the top and sides. Unfortunately, we do not carry any 155/60-13 or 165/60-13 trailer tires nor is this a common trailer tire size.
I recommend the Provider ST175/80R13 Radial Trailer Tire part # TTWTRTM1758013C.... view full answer...
For what you are wanting from the Hollywood Racks Destination E-Bike Rack # HLY66ZR your best option would be a pivot adapter like the Yakima part # Y02483 as it will give you the additional extension you are wanting as well as gives ability for the rack to swing out and away for rear door clearance like you are wanting. An extender won't allow your rear door style to still open. view full answer...
You actually should shoot for 4-1/2" of clearance between the top of your tire and the bottom of the fender well. This accounts for flex in your suspension.
Unless 2,280 lbs is the GVWR (gross vehicle weight rating) of your trailer then you need to look into lifting your trailer as opposed to smaller tires. Even just going down to 4.80R12 tires, like part # TT48012C, gives you an overall weight capacity of 3,960 lbs. This means that you can load about 1,700 lbs on your trailer before it... view full answer...

Bike racks suitable for use on RVs and motor homes are designed specifically for use on such vehicles because those racks will endure much more vertical and lateral force during normal driving. The longer the distance from the rear axle to the carrier the more sway and bounce the rack will have to tolerate. You can think of the difference in riding comfort from a seat at the front of a bus compared to a rear seat, which has a much bumpier ride.
The motor home bike carriers we offer include... view full answer...
To use the Curt Echo Wireless Trailer Brake Controller item # C51180 you won't need a brake control wire. If you have already purchased a wiring harness you can cap that wire off and make sure its sealed because you won't need to run it to the cab of your Sprinter.
If you still need a wiring harness I recommend the 7-Way RV Upgrade Kit for Trailer Brake Controller Installation - 12 Gauge Wires item # ETBC7L. This kit that pulls power from the 7-way trailer connector instead of wiring... view full answer...

You can use duplex wire # 10-2-1 (sold by the foot) and butt connectors # DW05745-10 to make your electrical connections. view full answer...
The correct rear anti-sway bar for your 2013 Sprinter 3500 would be the Roadmaster Anti-Sway Bar part # RM-1209-131. You will need to remove your old sway bar before you can install this product since they utilize the same installation points.
The part # RM-1209-131 that you referenced is for older model Sprinters and gets installed in conjunction with the factory bar but would not work for you since it is for older model Sprinters. view full answer...
The correct anti-sway bar for a 2013 Dodge/Freightliner/Mercedes Sprinter 3500 regular van or RV cut-away models is going to be # RM-1209-120.
The other one, # RM-1209-131 only fits Class C RV models built on the 3500 chassis. I have also included a link to our FAQ article on heavy duty vehicle stability control for you. view full answer...
Yes, either a slider hitch or a Sidewinder would be required for your 2014 Ram 2500 with a short bed to make tight turns and clear the cab of your truck.
Between the two options I would recommend a Sidewinder. You will need to remove the pin box of the trailer and replace it with a Sidewinder pin box. Sidewinders are pin box specific so you will first need to know what pin box you have know in order to pick out the correct one.
There should be a sticker or a stamping on the OEM pin box... view full answer...

The installation hardware is not available separately, but it can be obtained at a local hardware store. It uses 2-1/4 inch long 3/8 inch carriage bolts, matching nuts, and lock washers. You would need 4 of each. view full answer...
Fitting a trailer hitch to a former ambulance can be pretty difficult since the rear bumper area is different than a standard vehicle. That said, I attached an install video and install instructions link to the page down below for you to check out to see if the Curt hitch part # 13358 could potentially fit or not. view full answer...
The Draw Tite hitch part # 75549 that fits the 2007 Dodge Sprinter does not fit models that have a 30-3/8 inch wide frame like you mentioned. This measurement is the outside to outside width of the frame measuring from the two frame channels. view full answer...
