    EXCELLENT VIDEO.!!
    THIS IS ABSOLUTELY HOW A 9000 POUND VAN
    IS LIFTED CORRECTLY.
    THE DETAILS ARE VERY IMPORTANT...

    Looks great. Love my VC suspension. You might want to consider painting those rear wheel wells with a black undercoating. It makes it blend in really nicely.

    Easily one of the best sprinter suspension explanations I've seen. I also really appreciate that they are the only company I've found that will work on my dually. Thanks Talon!

    Informative vid. Love our 6.3 on our Revel. Also did the full leaf spring replacement. It makes a huge difference on and off road. Only regret is we didnt do the Baja bracket (it was just coming out when we did it). Tire size increase is also coming soon!

    • @TalonSei
      @TalonSei  Рік тому +1

      You can add Baja Brackets at anytime. It will be a little more costly for install because it’s easier to do when you are doing the rest of the suspension but still totally worth it

    That thing looks mean! I'll be honest, I never thought of the Sprinter as a capable platform. Now yours looks like it's got enough ground clearance to actually make it up a decent trail, you know, minus the size constraints.

      They are surprisingly capable, especially with upgraded suspension.

    Thanks for the detailed video! I was curious now that you’ve put a few miles on it, if it has preformed as promised? If so, are there any pre-tuning changes you would make during install? I’m ready to add suspension to my Revel and was hoping you could pass on any notes or tips that you’ve learned after install and heavy use. TIA! Love your vids! Keep up the cool content!

  • @acd3169

    Very Interesting... On a 3500 Dually and in the procees to Single it, will this kit work with it with 295/17 tires without trimmings? and another thing should I opt to replace the front original shocks to a coil over while using the part on top for camber and caster, will it work with wheel spacers of half inch?

    Hello, Great Video. I am curious as to what tire size you have on the Van? or at least what size was on the van when the 6.3 kit was installed. I have 275/70-17 but am not sure if the tires will look too small for the 6.3 Kit?

  • @gzone11ify

    Hey Talon, I know they have lockers for the new all wheel drive sprinters this is something you should consider for the new sprinter.

    • @TalonSei
      @TalonSei  Рік тому +1

      I’m waiting until I hear more about it. I want to test the AWD to its full potential now that I have the ground clearance before I make that decision.

  • @vaultman100
    @vaultman100 23 дні тому

    Very informative video. Thanks. I’m about to put a 6.3 package on my ‘25 (‘23 chassis) Sprinter Ekko. I notice that I often see the OEM front strut left in place. Is there no advantage to replacing it with a Van Compass 3.3 inverted strut? I figure once we have it in suspension upgrade mode wouldn’t it be worthwhile to maximize the return in labor by swapping out the factory strut that I assume is just as lacking as the rear damper?
    Thank you.

      Well the .3 vs .5 is just the manual vs electronic. This new add on will work with either.

    Wish I could use the VC suspension 6.3 in Australia , If I put it on here the Police would put me off the road. It amazes me the mods you guys can do that are illegal here can't even run more that 265 tyres. They even make AWD different from 4x4's . An AWD you can't really change at all.

    Do the 285’s effect the gearing? I’ve heard it does with 35’s but not sure w/ 34’s.

    • @TalonSei
      @TalonSei  Рік тому +1

      These tires are 33.9” and surprisingly all of the systems still work. You could regear but it’s not necessary.

      Kings just came to market recently and just designed a truck setup to fit on sprinter vans. These are specifically designed and tuned for vans like this making them much better suited for the application.
