Expert Answers about Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500


  • Which Roadmaster Sway Bar Fits 2018 Mercedes Sprinter 3500
  • I really apologize for the confusion but our part # RM43VR is the Roadmaster part number 1209-110 that you are wanting. We changed the part number to something unique for us for a reason that I don't necessarily agree with because it's confusing but I can assure you this is the sway bar you are looking for.

  • Recommended Suspension Enhancement for a 2019 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500
  • I recommend using the SuperSprings SumoSprings for your 2019 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500. These are a one-time installation that you never have to worry about checking up on and they provide more support (become more rigid) as you load more things into your Sprinter. For the front axle you need the kit # SSF-106-47 and then for the rear you need the kit # SSR-338-54. The SumoSprings are superior to the other suspension enhancement options because they tend to provide more cushion so your...

  • Suspension Enhancement Recommendation for 2020 Mercedes Benz 3500
  • For improved stability and ride quality for your 2020 Mercedes Benz 3500 chassis the best option is the SumoSprings Rebel part # SS23FR as it's the best blend of stability and support plus it's a two piece design which allows the suspension to still move without restriction. The Timbrens are great for support but they have a reputation as being a bit harsh whereas the SumoSprings are known to help with ride quality and stability more.

  • Correct SumoSprings for Thor RV On 2020 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500
  • The SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs part # SSF-106-47 are a great option for a 2020 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500 and what I recommend using. I actually got the chance to install and use these which you can see in the video below. Then for the rear I recommend the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs part # SSR-338-54 (install video on black version below). These are the two higher rated options for this vehicle which is what I recommend for cutaways, especially if you really see...

  • Recommended Suspension Upgrade for Sway Reduction on 2020 Thor Compass
  • Since your main focus is sway reduction, I recommend the SuperSprings Custom Suspension Stabilizer and Sway Control Kit # SS62KV for your 2020 Thor Compass. These work like sway bars and will help reduce sway by up to 30 percent. The # SSR-338-54 would also work, but I would choose those if your main concern was additional support to reduce sag. They won't do the same job in terms of sway reduction. I would not choose the Timbren over either of these. In addition to the sway reduction...

  • Recommended Wiring and Brake Controller for a 2019 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500
  • Glad to hear you've been getting some good use out of your Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 75549! I recommend using a brake controller with the least invasive installation for the intricate OEM wiring on your 2019 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500. For that you need the Tekonsha # TK82VR which will have everything you need to install a 7-Way connector that carries all of the functions you need for the Curt Echo # C51180 brake controller. The Echo is a unique controller that simply...

  • Suspension Enhancements for 2017 MB Sprinter 3500 Class C
  • Replacing the factory jounce springs on your 2017 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500 with the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs, # SSR-338-54, is definitely an improvement over factory suspension in helping to eliminate body roll of your Class C motorhome. While I do think you would see greater improvement with installation of the Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar, # RM-1209-131 there is a variance in price to consider. The factory jounce bumper stop provides for travel prior to being engaged...

  • Recommended Suspension Support for 2018 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500 Motorhome
  • For the rear suspension on your Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500 motorhome the Timbren Suspension Enhancement System # TMBRSP35A will work perfectly. These jounce-style springs are designed specifically for a motorhome application and their 7,000 pound capacity will provide you with great support for a comfortable and level ride. If you also want to add some front suspension support I recommend the Timbren # TMBFSP35. This will add to the rear support to create a much more stable ride in your...

  • Tire Chains for 215/85-16 Tires on a 2018 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500
  • We do have a handful of tire chain options for the 215/85-16 size tires on your 2018 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500. I wasn't quite sure if you were looking for single tire or dual tire chains so I'll add my recommendation for both. For single tires I recommend the Konig XB16 # TH01571245 because they have great quality and used D-Links in a diamond pattern for a consistent ride quality. Then for dual tires I recommend the Titan Chain Snow Chains # TC4219CAM which have a twist link in a...

  • Recommended Trailer Wiring for 2016 Mercedes Benz 3500 Chassis Motorhome
  • Something doesn't add up with the description you gave. I recommend using a circuit tester like # PTW2993 to test the 7-way functions at your 7-way trailer connector. If they didn't combine the stop lamp and turn signal functions at the 7-way then you would be missing either the blinkers or the stop lamp because there simply aren't enough pins for them to be separate and all accessible for the trailer use. I've attached a diagram of the 7-way to assist with the function locations....

  • How to Carry Ride Scoozy Fat Bike on Hollywood Racks Sport Rider for Fat E Bikes
  • Yes, you can use the bike frame adapter part # UB01 with the Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE 2 Electric Bike Rack # HLY84FR and you'd have a way to secure your Ride Scoozy Fat Tire E-Bikes. This adapter attaches to the seat post of the bike and the steering stem and gives the bike rack a horizontal attachment point for the rack to attach to. I attached review videos for both the rack and adapter for you to check out as well.

  • Can Gen-Y Torsion Ball Mount Be Used To Flat Tow 2021 Jeep Wrangler and Carry Stow Away Box?
  • I would be happy to help! The Gen-Y Torsion 2-Ball Mount w/ Stacked Receivers - 2" Hitch - 5" Drop/Rise - 10,000 lbs # 325-GH-1024 is a great option for attaching the Blue Ox Avail Tow Bar # BX7420 to your 2021 Tiffin Wayfarer with a 2" receiver, and it will give you a smoother ride. With that said a standard non-cushioned ball mount like the # 325-GH-324 would be just fine, as the torsion-flex technology would be a bit over kill for what you are wanting to do. This option would would...

  • Front Anti-Sway Bar for 2018 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500
  • We do not have an option for front anti-sway bar on the 2018 Mercedes Benz Sprinter 3500. However, there are two options for the rear, the Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar, # RM-1209-120 is a factory sway bar replacement that is 1-3/8 inch diameter. The Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar that I suggest, # RM-1209-131 is also an option that fits your vehicle, but is 1-1/2 inches diameter and retains the factory sway bar enhancing stability.

  • Draw Tite Hitch Fit Recommendation for 2016 Mercedes Sprinter 3500 with 144 inch Wheelbase
  • I believe you meant to type 366.5 cm wheelbase as that would equal 144 inches which the Draw Tite hitch part # 75549 would be a fit for your 2016 Mercedes Sprinter if you didn't have the factory step bumper. If you did have the factory step bumper you would want the part # 75601.

  • Recommended Valve Stem Stabilizers for a 16 Inch Wheel
  • We do carry the Wheel Masters Support Brackets for Rubber Valve Stems # WM8029VS which are designed to be used on 16 inch wheels. From the measurements and descriptions you have for your RV, I do suggest going with these. The TST TPMS for RVs # TST-507-FT-6-C is also highly recommended. This includes a booster, if needed, has flow through sensors, and can handle up to 196 psi. I do have to say that this will only cover 6 of your 7 wheels though. We do have replacement/add-on sensors (...
