2015-2026 Sprinter 4x4 Falcon 3.3 Fast Adjust Inverted Rally Strut (Pair) (1009)

The front strut is where ride quality and control are won or lost, and the factory unit gives up quickly under the weight of a built-out 4x4 Sprinter. Co-developed with Falcon, the Van Compass 3.3 Fast Adjust Inverted Rally Strut flips the conventional strut upside down, using the damper body as the upper shaft and housing the load-bearing components in a massive lower housing at the steering knuckle, the same approach found on Dakar and World Rally Championship cars. The payoff is dramatically better damping, more stable and predictable handling, and the confidence to use your suspension to its full potential on and off road.

Features

• Inverted design with a much larger damping piston than OEM for superior control
• Significantly increased load-bearing surface area for long service life
• Damper shaft and seal surfaces protected inside the lower housing
• Greater clamping force to hold alignment specs
• Proprietary 'Rate Cup' retains the OEM strut bushing for easy installation and OEM-matched NVH, dispersing damping forces across the full bushing to prevent clunks and premature wear
• Sold as a pair
