The Hidden Hitch Class III Receiver, part # 87585 will fit your 2008 Mercury Mariner Hybrid. The hitch has a gross trailer weight capacity of 3,500 pounds and tongue weight capacity of 350 pounds.

The Mariner may have a lesser capacity, so you would need to check the vehicle owner manual to see what towing capacities your Mariner Hybrid has. If the vehicle capacities are less you must abide by those. I have included a link to a video of the Hidden Hitch being installed on a 2007 Mariner.

Towing capacities on a particular model, like the Mariner, will vary with the different options and packages. A V6 Mariner equipped with a tow-package will be able to tow more than a base 4 cylinder model.

The wiring harness, part # 118551, will work with any of the Mariner models, including the Hybrid.
