Description
xImprove stability, control, and ride quality on your Mercedes-Benz Sprinter AWD or 4x4 3500 (2019-Present) with the Van Compass Stage 1 Suspension System. Designed as the foundation of the Van Compass suspension lineup, this system delivers a major handling upgrade without altering ride height.
The Stage 1 system features VC tuned Falcon 2.1 Monotube Shocks at all four corners, dramatically improving damping performance compared to factory components. The result is reduced body roll, minimized wind sway, improved bump absorption, and more predictable handling both on pavement and off-road.
To further enhance suspension compliance, the system includes progressive Bump Buddy jounce bumpers, replacing the harsh factory rubber bump stops. These improve spring progression, reduce harsh bottom-out events, and increase overall comfort under load.
Ideal for lightly built adventure vans, passenger vans, and Class B RVs seeking improved driving confidence, the Stage 1 system tightens up loose factory handling while maintaining everyday comfort and reliability.
Select the correct shock tune based on your vehicle’s loaded weight for optimal performance.
