Product Details

Bilstein B6 part number 22-249326 is a front suspension strut assembly engineered for 2007-2009 Dodge Sprinter 2500 and Sprinter 3500, plus 2010-2018 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500 and Sprinter 3500. The B6 line focuses on controlled damping and stable response, using a monotube layout and a digressive piston design to react to road inputs with consistent performance. This makes it a practical OE-style upgrade for drivers looking to restore front-end control on a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter or Dodge Sprinter platform.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

Common Issues This Part Addresses

• Excessive front-end bounce over uneven pavement
• Reduced steering response during lane changes or braking
• Harsh or inconsistent ride quality from worn front struts
• Front suspension instability on loaded Sprinter vans
• Loss of damping control from aging OE strut assemblies
