Mercedes Sprinter with load-bearing frame

Before fitting a towbar to your Mercedes Sprinter, it is important to check whether the chassis has sufficient extension and load-bearing capacity. Vehicles with the Hobby Grenzland body may have a load-bearing chassis that is extended to fit a towbar. 

To determine if a frame extension is load-bearing, refer to our blog. If the vehicle already has a load-bearing frame extension, the cost of installing a towbar is lower as no additional extension is needed.

Mercedes Sprinter without a load-bearing frame

If your Mercedes Sprinter does not have a load-bearing frame extension, you must first retrofit one before fitting a towbar. The frame extension serves as the foundation for attaching the trailer hitch and the rear garage. It includes frame adapters, frame extensions and reinforcement sets.

Our frame adapters are designed uniformly for all Mercedes Sprinter models, allowing for the use of existing attachment points on the vehicle chassis without requiring any modifications to the original chassis. 

X-CAMPING offers frame extensions in various designs ranging from 75 cm to 200 cm in length. To determine the appropriate length for your vehicle, please refer to our blog.

Our frame extension for the Mercedes Sprinter Hobby Grenzland Bj. 1986-1996 is universally compatible with various towbars from other manufacturers, such as SMV-Metall, Linnepe, AL-KO, SAWIKO, and XIMPLIO. Please note that a frame extension should be adjustable in both height and width. An example of the adjustment options for a frame extension from XIMPLIO can be found here:
