Mercedes Sprinter Rear Mixed Helper Springs (Empty & Loaded)

Give your Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500 or 3500 a smarter rear suspension upgrade with rear mixed (empty & loaded) helper springs. This setup adds support when you carry weight and stays civil when you’re unloaded — ideal for vans that aren’t always full. Result: less rear sag, better stability, and preserved ride comfort day to day.

What does “mixed (empty & loaded)” mean?

Mixed helper springs are tuned to engage progressively under load. Cruising empty? They have a light touch for comfort. Load the van with tools, camping gear, or cargo? They step in to keep the rear level and controlled.

  • Comfort when empty — minimal effect on unladen ride.
  • Support when loaded — reduces squat and keeps headlights level.
  • Stability — improved control in crosswinds, cornering, and braking.
  • Protection — eases stress on OEM springs, shocks, and bump stops.
  • TÜV-tested — engineered reliability for real-world use.

  • Cargo / delivery — frequent load changes across the day.

Fitment & compatibility

  • Models: Sprinter 2500 / 3500 (US). Exact coverage depends on the kit SKU.
  • Drive: FWD or RWD (check each kit card).
  • Rear axle: SRW or DRW — see kit specs.

Tip: Open a kit card to see approval (e.g., TÜV), install time, and any notes specific to your build.

Install overview

  • Typical install time: ~60 minutes per axle (shop tools, lift recommended).
  • No welding; bolt-on with included hardware and instructions.
  • Alignment not usually required; verify ride height and torque after ~100 miles.

Why choose mixed over constant?

If you’re always heavy, a constant-load kit can be the best match. If your payload varies, the mixed (empty & loaded) option preserves comfort empty and adds support when you need it.
