Description
xUnlock maximum clearance and load support with the Van Compass Opti-Rate Striker AWD 2" Lift Kit, engineered specifically for the 2023-Up Mercedes-Benz Sprinter AWD 2500 Single Rear Wheel platform. Designed through years of platform-specific development, this complete system increases ground clearance while preserving factory suspension geometry and drivability.
The Striker AWD system lowers the front subframe using a combination of precision-machined and welded spacers, allowing CV shafts, tie rods, and control arms to cycle within their original Mercedes-engineered geometry range. This ensures proper alignment, long-term durability, and minimal compromise compared to traditional lift methods.
At the rear, the system features the Opti-Rate adjustable leaf spring pack, paired with a 2" lift block, longer sway bar links, shock relocation brackets, and bump stop spacers. This comprehensive approach ensures nothing binds, over-extends, or over-compresses during articulation.
The Opti-Rate spring design allows end users to fine-tune spring rate and ride height, making this kit ideal for heavier vans in the 9,000–10,000 lb range and above, including premium camper builds, extended wheelbase vans with full interiors, and vehicles carrying rear-mounted gear, racks, or trailers.
With proper wheel offset and trimming, this system can support fitment of up to 35 x 12.50 tires, delivering a dramatic increase in traction, stance, and off-road capability.
For serious AWD Sprinter owners demanding clearance, capability, and heavy-load support without sacrificing refinement, the Opti-Rate Striker AWD 2" Lift Kit sets the benchma
