**NOTE: PLEASE READ THE ENTIRE DESCRIPTION BEFORE ORDERING!!! Including the additional drop down and installation tips & tricks.  

**Configuration Update: Based on all the strut kits out in the wild, almost all of customers preferred (99.89999%) to use 40lb struts even with loaded doors. With that in mind we will only be selling this version for now.  If you feel you really need 60lb struts please reach out directly. 

Heavy van doors are a pain. They fight you when you open them and slam back when you don't expect it. Moonraker Design Rear Door Struts fix both problems — taking the weight off your arms and keeping doors locked open so wind and grades don't turn them into a hazard. Hands free. Doors safe. You Struttin' yet? 

Upgrade your Mercedes Sprinter Van (2019+ VS30 High Roof models ONLY) with Moonraker Design Co's precision CNC machined Rear Door Strut Brackets & Kit. Our brackets are meticulously crafted from solid 6061 Aluminum billet in our CNC machine shop, providing a clean and subtle look. Our kits come only in Low Force Struts (40lbs) now.  If you really feel like you need High Force Struts (60lbs) for really heavy doors please reach out directly.

Now one thing to keep in mind about the 40lb struts is they may require some assistance for very very very heavy doors or if you are parked nose down on an incline on opening, but they will keep the door open at 90º once they are there so that you don't have to worry about wind or said inclines slamming the doors on you while you are inside the back of your van.

These require accurate drilling & modification of the van with that said professional installation is recommended.  If you'd like to DIY please read installation instructions & tips here we've got a lot of good advice and tool recommendations for making it an easy install. 

Key Features

  • Improved Design: Up & out of the way so your kids aren’t hanging off them or people don’t get caught in the closing door strut
  • Quick Release Ball Stud Sockets: Sometimes you need your old door functionality back so you can use the tool-free quick release ball stud sockets to do just that
  • Storage Location Expansion: You can set up a storage location for the struts when they aren’t in use by using an extra ball stud on the door bracket and an additional ball stud (sold separately)
  • Compatibility: Fits 2019+ VS30 Mercedes Sprinter Vans
  • Easy Installation: The bracket kit can be installed in an hour or less, offering a quick and convenient upgrade to your Sprinter van.
  • Premium Materials: Utilizes high-quality name brand struts, all stainless steel hardware and our brackets are surface treated and anodized black for durability and a seamless factory look.
  • Additional Detailing: Subtle Laser-etched text and Moonraker Design Logos for subtle detailing and style.
  • Sustainable Packaging: We use only paper packing & fill so it can all be recycled after opening and installing your strut kit.

Installation Information

  • Compatibility: These are designed to work with HIGH ROOF VS30 (2019+) Sprinter Van with 180º Hinges ONLY. These will not work with 270º Hinges or Low Roof Sprinter vans.
  • Confirmed these work with The Bug Wall.
  • We have NOT tested with any other rear bug screens and can't guarantee they will work without some modification of those bug screens.
  • These do NOT work with GoCode or TerraWagen D-Pillar trims without modification.
  • Customization: Explore branding or laser-etched logos for a unique touch (additional $30.00 for van conversion companies or those looking to differentiate their kit or we can offer it free at wholesale prices if you buy in bulk 5+ sets at a time).
  • Drill & Rivnut Tool Required: Installation requires 8 total M6 rivnuts (which are included) to be installed into the interior frame of the van. This requires drilling to size and an appropriate setting tool. Professional installation is recommended.
  • Note: Due to the struts having additional force applied closing the door will require amore effort than the factory configuration.

Testimonials

Absolutely stunning, from the shipping and delivery to the impeccable packaging and identification of the parts. I installed in about ten minutes with the video which was linked to my phone via the QR code included in the kit.. Can't say enough about the fit and finish of this kit. Very reasonable price too when you consider all of the extras.

Hood Strut Kit Review

The mounting system works great. I originally installed my MaxxAir fan with sheet metal screws but opted to replace it with with this and glad I did.
