Red face Hitch for 350sdl

i am disabled and i have an electric lift and an electric chair that i use. we used to have a durango and used the lift on that. we now only have the Mercedes.

the lift weights 70lbs and has a 2x2 mount, and the scooter weighs 225.

can anyone suggest a source for the hitch? and some rear air shocks?

DaLan Hitches are the only ones wth a 2" receiver, for Mercedes, that I'm familiar with. Tongue weight is not much, though as they're class I.

forget the air shocks. not available and will kill your ride if you could find them.

it it pushes the car down too much i suggest using a thicker rubber spacer under the rear spring.
