Product Description

The Bilstein 22-226631 B6 4600 front strut assembly is a direct, performance-oriented upgrade for Sprinter vans from 2002 to 2006. Featuring Bilstein's proven monotube design with high-gas pressure and a velocity-sensitive digressive piston, this strut improves handling consistency, reduces fade, and enhances ride stability - even under load or during heavy-duty use. Durable yellow paint resists corrosion, and the included hardware ensures a straightforward OEM-style installation.

Designed for factory ride height, this strut doesn't alter suspension geometry and retains original mounting points (upper stem and special lower plate). It's perfect for Sprinter owners seeking better control, responsiveness, and longevity without sacrificing comfort. Supported by Bilstein's limited lifetime warranty for North American markets, the 22-226631 is an ideal OE-plus solution.
Fitment: confirmed for Sprinter 2500/3500 across Mercedes-Benz, Dodge, and Freightliner - model years 2002-2006, 2.7L turbo diesel, RWD. No fitment available for 4WD or other engine options.
