Recommended Trailer Hitch and Wiring for 2011 Mercedes-Benz M-Class
Question:
Looking for a tow package for my 2011 ML350 No Bluetec. Its just a regular ML350. I am looking at the Curt 13342 and looking at what electrical converter it needs for the lights? Any other recommendations would be appreciated! Thanks!

We offer several 2-inch Class III hitches for your 2011 Mercedes-Benz ML350 that can be seen on the link provided. All have the same capacities and will install pretty much identically. Each includes the required mounting hardware and each one will require a little drilling. I recommend the Curt # 13342 since it is the lowest cost option.
You'll need to see your dealer for the trailer wiring harness, and for a ball mount, part # C45030 is recommended. For a 1-7/8 ball, use # 19260 or # 63845 for a 2 inch ball and a pin and clip # PC3.
