Product Details

Your hitch goes where your van goes

If you tow trailers around the shop, take the boat out for the weekend, or pick up a rental trailer once in a while, you want your ball mount with you. Leave it in the receiver and you'll find it with your shins. Leave it at home and you're buying another one.

The Hidden Hitch Holder gives your hitch a home on the van. It bolts into the side of the factory tow hitch, out of the way of your legs, and keeps your ball mount ready whenever you need it.

Works with short and long drops

Slide a normal-drop hitch straight in, line up the front and back holes, and pin it. If your hitch has a much longer drop, turn it 90 degrees, slide it in, and pin it through a hole on the bottom side. It stores sideways and gives you more ground clearance.

Made by Sandy Vans

We built it because we tow all the time and got tired of buying ball mounts. It's heavy-duty steel and uses two bolts, so it goes on once and stays put.

Pro InstallFree at SV HQ, San Diego

On a 2019+ Sprinter factory hitch, the holder bolts into the existing side frame mount holes with the 2 bolts, 4 washers and 2 nuts in the box. No drilling. Plan on about an hour, or have us install it free at SV HQ in San Diego.

Other hitches can be adapted by drilling two mounting holes for the bracket. Reach out before you drill and we'll help you plan it.

There's no printed manual. The video below shows the holder on the van and how to store your hitch, both straight and sideways.

Mistakes to avoid

Not sliding the hitch all the way through. Line up both the front and back holes before you put the pin in.
Forgetting the clip. Pin it and clip it every time, just like you would in the receiver.
Storing a long-drop hitch straight. Turn it 90 degrees and use a bottom hole for more clearance.

Tools You'll Need

Wrench or socket set for the supplied bolts
Your hitch pin and clip

How to choose a hitch storage setup

Here's what customers ask, in order.

1. What van and hitch do you have?

The holder is made for the factory tow hitch on 2019+ Mercedes-Benz Sprinters (VS30). It bolts into the hitch's existing side frame holes.

How to choose: 2019+ Sprinter with the factory hitch: it bolts right on. Other hitch: plan to drill two holes.

2. How long is your ball mount's drop?

Normal drops store straight. Longer drops can store sideways for more clearance.

How to choose: If your hitch hangs low when stored straight, turn it 90 degrees and pin it sideways.

3. Do you want it installed?

It's a two-bolt install you can do in your driveway. We'll also install it free at SV HQ in San Diego.

How to choose: Have a wrench or socket set? Do it yourself. Coming by the shop? Let us handle it.

Before you order

Confirm you have a 2019+ Sprinter factory hitch, or plan to drill for other hitches
Check that your ball mount has a pin hole that lines up with the holder
Have your hitch pin and clip handy

How the SV Hidden Hitch Holder stacks up

Fitment: uses the factory hitch's existing holes on 2019+ Sprinters

Will it fit my van?

It's made for the factory tow hitch on 2019+ Mercedes-Benz Sprinters and uses the hitch's existing side frame holes. Other hitches can be adapted by drilling two mounting holes.

Will my ball mount fit?

It holds standard ball mounts that slide in and pin through. If you're not sure about yours, send a photo to products@sandyvans.com and we'll confirm.

My hitch has a long drop. Will it hit the ground?

Turn it 90 degrees, slide it in, and pin it through a hole on the bottom side. It stores sideways for more clearance.

Does it come with a hitch?

No. It holds your existing ball mount. The box includes the holder bracket and mounting hardware.

Do I need to drill?

Not on a 2019+ Sprinter factory hitch. Other hitches need two holes drilled for the bracket.

Will this fit my Winnebago Revel, Storyteller Overland or other Sprinter-based RV?

Most Sprinter-based RVs share the same factory body, so it often fits. Fitment can change with trim level and factory accessories, so reach out to our team at products@sandyvans.com or (619) 812-1903 with your RV model and year and we'll confirm before you order.
