• 2006 Dodge Sprinter Trailer Hitch and Spare Tire Compatibility
• We have two hitch receiver options compatible with your 2006 Dodge Sprinter, however both options do require relocating the spare tire. The compatible hitch receivers are the Curt # 13250 you referenced and the Curt # 14250 which has a higher capacity rating. You may want to consider the Roadmaster Spare Tire Carrier # RM-195125 which won't allow for trailer towing but will allow for flat towing or use of an accessory like a bike rack or cargo carrier.

• Recommended Awning For A 2006 Dodge Sprinter Van
• Awnings like the Solera 12V XL Power RV Awning # LCV000334919-362241 aren't really intended for use on the side of a sprinter van but if you could still technically install it on your 2006 Dodge Sprinter. The arms of the awning will need to be bolted into studs and needs to sit on a flat surface so you'll most likely need to do a lot of modification to your van to safely install this. Typically most van owners use the Thule HideAway Awning # TH490011, as it's specifically designed for...

• Can Size 225/75-16 Sized Tire Chains be Used for Size 235/85-16 Tires?
• I found an answer that will work. Unfortunately, the Konig Standard Snow Tire Chains - Diamond Pattern # TH01571245 cannot be modified without undermining the integrity/safety of the tire chains to fit a 235/85-16 tire. However, we do sell some tire chains with that size. I recommend the Titan Chain Snow Tire Chains w/ Cams # TC2821CAM. The Titan chains involve a manual installation with cam tightening for a tight, secure fit. They are also the great economic option. If you need more than...

• Are SumoSprings Designed to be Taller than Suspension Bumps Stops
• The SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs # SSF-401-54 are intentionally designed to be taller than the bump stops on the suspension of your vehicle. This is so they engage sooner and provide support. Bump stops aren't designed for adding support so much as they are for preventing bottoming out. These will help noticeably with impacts felt from pot holes or sudden impacts.

• Can a Trailer Hitch Mount Bike Rack and Cargo Carrier be Used at the Same Time
• With the 24x60 Railed Cargo Carrier, # 63153, installed in the trailer hitch, you will not be able to install anything else in the hitch and nothing can be installed in the tubing in the cargo carrier. What you could do is use the Curt Dual 2 Inch Receiver Tube Adapter, # D-192. However, the bikes will be hanging above the cargo carrier, limiting the amount of space on the carrier. Also this adapter/extension has a tongue weight rating of 350 pounds. This means that the cargo carrier,...

• Will the Thule Elite Van XT 2 Bike Rack Fit on a 2005 Dodge Sprinter Van?
• I do have a good solution for you, however. I confirmed with Thule that the Thule Elite Van XT 2 Bike Rack for Sprinter Rear Door # TH302043 will not fit a 2005 Dodge Sprinter Van. However, the next best solution is to use a hitch and a hitch-mounted bike carrier. For the bike rack, I recommend the Kuat Sherpa 2.0 Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 2" Hitches # SH22G along with the Kuat Pivot 2 Swing Away Hitch Extender for Bike Racks # PVP20B. The great thing about the Kuat Sherpa 2.0 with the Pivot...

• Can Front Mount Hitch Receiver Be Installed on a 2006 Dodge Sprinter

We haven't installed this before so you'll have to check the fitment with your vehicle but it's the best option we have to offer.
