Why Sprinter Van Suspension Matters
Sprinter vans carry more weight, travel longer distances, and work harder than typical vehicles. That means their suspension components wear differently — and faster.
Common symptoms of suspension issues include:
-
Excessive bouncing or sway
-
Harsh ride quality
-
Uneven tire wear
-
Clunking or knocking noises
-
Poor stability under load
-
Van leaning to one side
-
Steering wandering or vibration
If you notice any of these signs, our technicians can diagnose and repair the issue before it becomes a major safety concern.

Sprinter Suspension Service FAQ
1. How often should I service my Sprinter van suspension?
Most Sprinter vans need suspension inspection every 20,000–30,000 km, especially commercial units carrying heavy loads.
2. What are signs my Sprinter suspension needs repair?
Swaying, uneven tire wear, vibration, clunking noises, poor stability, or harsh ride quality are the most common symptoms.
3. Do Sprinter vans require special alignment?
Yes. Sprinters have unique ride-height and weight-distribution characteristics. Our alignment specialist sets OEM or custom specs based on your use case.
4. Can I upgrade my Sprinter suspension for cargo or towing?
Absolutely. We offer heavy-duty shocks, helper springs, reinforced leaf packs, and custom tuning for commercial or RV builds.
5. How much does Sprinter suspension repair cost?
Costs vary by components, but typical repairs range from $350–$1,800 depending on shock replacement, bushings, leaf springs, or alignment needs.
When it comes to absorbing the shocks of the road, shock absorbers do not take care of everything.
Coil or leaf springs handle the abuse of the road. Your shock absorbers handle the abuse caused by the rebound of the springs.
They both work together to keep your vehicle under control.
Many of today’s front-wheel drive cars have a strut suspension system that combines the control arms and shock absorbers.
A conventional car suspension into one unit, eliminating the need for a lot of other components.
