I have a 2013 MB Sprinter 2500, 170 wheel base, crew van. We tow an enclosed trailer full of band gear. Got it about two years ago and added a Curt Class III 2-inch trailer hitch receiver. Right away we noticed that it was super low to the ground and any standard hitch would have our trailer nose way too close to the ground. So we got a hitch that raises up a few inches. It still had our trailer kinda pointing down, and over the last two years it seems to have gotten worse. Not sure what is bending or where. Then when we took our Sprinter to MB dealer recently for something else they said our tow package is cracked. So we need to replace it, but we don't want to just put the same thing back on and run into the same problem again. Anyone have a similar problem with their tow package? What are our other options? We did install this first one ourselves, but it's just 4 bolts on both sides into spots that are already in the frame for the rear step-up, so I don't see how we possibly could've done it wrong to where it sits in a spot that it wasn't designed to sit... Thanks for any help! Pics attached.
