Mercedes-Benz Sprinter Trailer Hitch Buyer’s Guide (Canada)

Shopping a trailer hitch for a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter in Canada? Start with the badge on the door — Sprinter 1500, 2500, or 3500 — then check bumper style before you pick a CURT card. We stock a deep Sprinter shelf today: CURT 13388 Class 3 for listed standard-bumper years, CURT 13375 for the step-bumper Sprinter 3500 path on the card, and CURT 13250 for the older 2003 through 2006 Sprinter window.

Built for Canadian Sprinter owners and shops. Free shipping on CURT towing gear from Lots of Parts when the SKU is live on this store. New to hitch shopping? Start with the buying guide, how to choose a hitch, and what hitch class do I need. Prefer the full index? Open the towing guides hub.

How to Select a Trailer Hitch

CURT · Hitch class basics

Why cargo-van and SUV shoppers often land on a two inch Class 3 or heavier receiver, then still respect the door-sticker tow limit.

CURT Install Techniques

CURT · Hardware and method

General install habits. Finish with the instruction sheet for your exact SKU — bumper packages and under-van clearance reward a slow dry fit.

Trailer Wiring Harness Basics

CURT · T-connector overview

Useful context for lights even when a vehicle-specific harness is not listed — trailer lamps still need a real plan.

Ball Mount and Trailer Ball

CURT · Drop and rise

Two inch receivers need a matching ball mount. Set drop with typical cargo on board when you can — loaded vans and SUVs sit differently.

What we stock for Sprinter

CURT 13388 is the Class 3 hitch we list for 2007 through 2025 Sprinter 2500 and 3500 years on the card, plus 2019 through 2020 Sprinter 1500 with a standard bumper note. It uses a two inch receiver and shows a six thousand pound gross trailer weight note and a six hundred pound tongue-weight note on the card, with weight-distribution compatibility called out there too. It is deep in stock on Lots of Parts today.

CURT 13375 is the step-bumper Class 3 path for listed Sprinter 3500 years on the card, including Freightliner-badged vans in that window. The listing shows a five thousand pound gross trailer weight note and a five hundred pound tongue-weight note. Confirm you actually have a step bumper before you buy it over 13388.

CURT 13250 covers 2003 through 2006 Dodge and Freightliner Sprinter 2500 and 3500 years on the card with a two inch Class 3 path and the same six thousand pound gross trailer weight note style as 13388. A dedicated Sprinter custom wiring harness is not listed on this store today — we are not inventing one. Free shipping applies on CURT gear from this store when the SKU is live.

Jump to your Sprinter year

These are Sprinter hitch year pages we publish today for the jumps above. Confirm the product-card years before you buy. We do not invent missing landers — for example some mid-2010s Mercedes-Benz years are not on this list yet.

Honest gaps and shopper notes

Bumper split

13388 or 13375

13375 is the step-bumper Sprinter 3500 card. Standard bumper vans stay on 13388 for the years listed on that card.

Badge years

Dodge and Freightliner

Older vans may say Dodge or Freightliner on the badge. Match the lander and the CURT card years — do not guess from paint alone.

Door sticker

Hitch rating is not the tow limit

The number on the CURT card does not rewrite Mercedes-Benz published tow and tongue limits for your GVWR and package.

Lights

Wiring not listed

No dedicated Sprinter harness is listed here today. Plan trailer lights before the first trip, not after the hitch is already bolted on.

Step 1Read the door sticker

Model, year, bumper style, and tow limit come before any CURT SKU.

Step 2Open your lander

Use the Sprinter year pages above when they match.

Step 3Pick the right Class 3 card

13388 for standard bumper, 13375 for listed step-bumper 3500, or 13250 for the early window.

Step 4Plan lights

No dedicated Sprinter harness is listed here today — do not invent one.
