A DampMatic Rear Shock Tuned for Sprinter Camper Conversions
The Bilstein B6 Camper Advanced rear shock absorber uses Bilstein's patented DampMatic technology to automatically switch between two damping characteristic curves, without a solenoid valve, based on road input and vehicle load. This monotube design is tuned specifically for the added weight of camper conversions on the 2015-2018 Mercedes-Benz and Freightliner Sprinter 2500, delivering a soft setting for comfortable cruising and a firmer setting that engages automatically during more demanding driving.

- Monotube gas-pressure design
- Tuned specifically for camper conversion payloads on the Sprinter 2500
- Yellow painted finish
