Converted VAN Breaks Down Sprinter Suspension

Hello everyone, it’s Andrew from Sprinter Van Solutions in San Diego 🚐☀️ Today we’re working on a serious suspension issue with a converted Sprinter van. Extra weight from conversions and upgrades often pushes these vans over their factory gross capacity — and when the suspension isn’t properly reinforced, things break. 👉 In this video: We show a broken rear shock bolt seized inside the frame Explain why factory suspension struggles with conversion vans close to (or over) 9,000 lbs gross weight Review upgrades like leaf springs, SumoSprings, and reinforced shocks — and their limits Demonstrate the fix using an upper bolt reinforcement bracket from manufacturers like Agile, Van Compass, and King Suspension Successfully drill out the damaged bolt, install the bracket, and test the upgraded suspension ✅ Final result: The broken bolt is removed, the reinforcement bracket is installed, and the Sprinter is ready for safe road use again. 📍 Sprinter Van Solutions – San Diego 7754 Arjons Dr, Suite B, San Diego, CA 92126 📞 Call/Text: (619) 949-7564 🌐 sprintervansolutions.com #SprinterVanSolutions #SprinterSuspension #VanLifeSanDiego #MercedesSprinter #SprinterMechanic #VanCompass #SprinterRepair
