Van Compass Falcon 3.3 Fast Adjust Inverted Rally Strut, for 2007+ Sprinter

The pinnacle of suspension performance is being shifted to a new apex with Van Compass new inverted front struts, co-developed with Falcon. Using proven damper technology from Falcon, along with Van Compass expertise in chassis tuning, the result is a truly phenomenal increase in damping performance, which translates to more stable and predictable handling, greater control across all conditions, and the ability to actually use the suspension to its full potential on and off road. Further, the struts ideal location near the wheel makes the 3.3 Fast Adjust compression adjustment even more effective.

Inverted dampers flip the idea of the conventional strut upside down, and use the damper body as the upper strut shaft, with the load bearing unit contained in a massive lower housing that connects to the steering knuckle. This is the same application of technologies you will find on Dakar and World Rally Championship cars, which see some of the harshest driving conditions imaginable.

Van Compass proprietary 'Rate Cup' retains the OEM strut bushing for easy installation and retention of OEM NVH characteristics by preloading the bushing for tighter road feel. This dispersing the damping forces over the entire surface area of the bushing to prevent annoying clunks and premature bushing wear common with competing solutions.
