Bilstein 22-334329 B6 Camper Front Strut for 2015-2018 Sprinter 2500/3500 4WD

Vehicle Fitment

• 2015-2018 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500 (NCV3, 4WD/AWD, 2.1L I4 BlueTEC Diesel / 3.0L V6 BlueTEC Diesel - cargo van, passenger van, crew van)
• 2015-2018 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500 (NCV3, 4WD/AWD, 2.1L I4 BlueTEC / 3.0L V6 BlueTEC - cargo van, passenger van, crew van, cab chassis)
• 2015-2018 Freightliner Sprinter 2500 (NCV3, 4WD/AWD - cargo van, passenger van)
• 2015-2018 Freightliner Sprinter 3500 (NCV3, 4WD/AWD - cargo van, passenger van, cab chassis)

Fitment Notes

• Fits 4WD (all-wheel drive) Sprinter NCV3 models only - the 2WD Sprinter 2500/3500 uses a different front strut (Bilstein 22-334282 for B6 Camper 2WD)
• Covers both front left and front right positions - this strut is not side-specific; two units are required for a complete front axle replacement
• Applies to the NCV3 second-generation Sprinter facelift (2015-2018) in 4WD only; does not fit the third-generation VS30 Sprinter (2019+)
• Designed for camper van, motorhome conversion, and high-GVW cargo applications - the B6 Camper series is specifically tuned for vehicles carrying elevated loads beyond standard passenger car use
• Works with the factory coil springs - no spring swap required
• Dust boot not included
• Sold individually - two units required for a complete front axle replacement

Features

• B6 Camper series twin-tube gas-pressurized design tuned specifically for the high center-of-gravity and elevated load demands of Sprinter-based camper vans and motorhome conversions - delivering noticeably improved steering stability, tracking precision, and crosswind resistance compared to standard OE struts
• Velocity-sensitive digressive piston reacts instantly to changing road conditions - providing controlled, fade-free front damping whether traveling at highway speed, cornering on backroads, or navigating uneven surfaces with a fully loaded build-out
• Application-specific valving calibrated for the increased GVW and elevated center of gravity of Sprinter camper van applications - not a generic heavy-duty shock adapted to fit, but a purpose-tuned camper van strut
• Works with the factory coil springs and OEM mounting locations - no spring change or suspension modification required for installation
• Yellow painted finish - Bilstein's B6 Performance series identifier
• Stem upper mount and bracket lower mount correspond precisely to the NCV3 Sprinter 4WD front strut attachment points - direct bolt-on installation
• Individually tested and validated for real-world RV and camper van conditions including sustained high-load travel and extended highway use
• Backed by Bilstein's Limited Lifetime Warranty against manufacturer defects for gas pressure shock absorbers and struts

Product Description

The Bilstein 22-334329 is a B6 Camper front strut assembly engineered specifically for the 2015-2018 Mercedes-Benz and Freightliner Sprinter 2500 and 3500 in 4WD/AWD configuration. The B6 Camper is a distinct series within Bilstein's lineup - it is not a standard B6 Performance strut adapted for a van, but a purpose-designed damper calibrated for the unique suspension demands of Sprinter-based camper vans and motorhome conversions. The valving accounts for the elevated gross vehicle weight, high center of gravity, and sustained load conditions that characterize these builds, delivering a front suspension upgrade that meaningfully improves highway tracking stability, crosswind resistance, and steering confidence under the demanding conditions of long-haul camper van travel.

An important fitment distinction: the 22-334329 is for the 4WD/AWD NCV3 Sprinter only (2015-2018). The 2WD Sprinter uses an entirely different front strut geometry and requires a different part number (22-334282 for B6 Camper 2WD). Additionally, this strut is not compatible with the third-generation VS30 Sprinter (2019 and later), which has a revised front suspension architecture. The 22-334329 is not side-specific - it fits both the left and right front positions, and two units are required for a complete front axle service.

The twin-tube gas-pressurized construction delivers consistent, fade-free front damping performance across the full operating range of a loaded Sprinter - from long highway stretches to mountain switchbacks and urban maneuvering. It installs directly using the factory coil springs and OEM mounting points, requiring no spring changes. The factory dust boot is not included and should be reused or sourced separately. Backed by Bilstein's Limited Lifetime Warranty against manufacturer defects.
