🔥 Keep your Sprinter running cooler, even when the going gets tough!

We’re installing an upgraded oil cooling system from DAVE’S AUTO CENTER Utah - David Bell on this 3.0L Sprinter.

Whether you’re climbing steep mountain grades, hauling heavy loads, or exploring in the summer heat, high oil temperatures can put extra stress on your engine.

This high-performance oil cooler upgrade helps tackle that heat with:

✅ Lower oil temperatures – Designed to reduce oil temps by up to 50°F under load.

✅ Better engine protection – Helps maintain proper oil viscosity and reduce heat-related wear.

✅ Turbocharger protection – Cooler oil helps reduce the risk of oil breakdown and carbon buildup.

✅ Increased cooling capacity – Dual-pass, all-aluminum design for efficient heat dissipation.

✅ Long-term reliability – An added layer of protection for your Sprinter’s hardworking diesel engine.

For Sprinter owners who push their vans beyond the daily commute, managing heat is one of the smartest ways to protect their investment.

Showing our happy customer how to use their newly installed Aluminess PowerLift Bike Lift at pickup—and getting them ready for their next adventure!

One of our favorite parts of the job: handing over an upgrade and seeing that smile. 😎

Miramar Van Jam is postponed — it will not take place on Saturday, October 3.

With unusually hot weather expected, we’ve decided to move the event to a day when everyone can comfortably enjoy the vans, vendors, brewery, and time together.

We’re working with Mission Brewery and our exhibitors on a new date and will announce it as soon as it’s confirmed. If you’ve shared the event or invited friends, please help us spread the word that there is no event on October 3rd.

Thanks for your understanding. We’re looking forward to bringing the van community together soon!

Same Storyteller. A whole new look. 🏔️

This customer was ready to replace their original Storyteller hood wrap, so we removed the old design and gave the van a fresh topographic wrap. The contour lines add detail up close while keeping a clean look from a distance.

Swipe to see where it started, then watch the transformation. What do you think of the new look?

Have an idea for your van? DM Sprinter Pitstop and let’s talk about it.

A huge transformation on this Sprinter! 🔥

This van came in for a complete window and body upgrade, giving it a cleaner look, more natural light, and better functionality for life on the road.

✅ Side windows installed
✅ Flarespace rear cargo door windows
✅ Flarespace flares professionally painted to match the factory body color

The color-matched flares look like they came from Mercedes, while the added windows completely change the feel of the interior—making the van brighter, more open, and ready for its next adventure.

Whether you’re building a camper, overland rig, or adventure van, we can handle everything from the installation to the paintwork, all done with the professionalism you’ve come to expect from Sprinter Pitstop.

Adventure starts before the trail does. 🏔️

This Sprinter is ready for wherever the road leads next.

We equipped it with:
✔️ roof rack for maximum cargo capacity
✔️ side ladder for quick, secure roof access
✔️ 3.3 adjustable front & rear shocks for a ride that’s dialed in both on and off the pavement

Whether you’re loading bikes, recovery gear, rooftop storage, or chasing smoother handling on long road trips, this combination delivers the capability and confidence every adventure van deserves.

Ready to build your van your way? Our team can help you choose the right combination of suspension, armor, lighting, storage, and accessories for your style of travel.

HELP! My van weighs 11,000 lbs on stock suspension 😳

This Winnebago Ekko came to us carrying every bit of its GVWR, and the factory suspension simply wasn’t up to the task.

To improve ride quality, stability, and load-carrying performance, we installed:

✔️ Owl Arrow Trail 3500 Suspension Kit
✔️ Custom Reinforced Rear Leaf Springs
✔️ Front Bump Stops
✔️ Rear SumoSprings

The result? Better control, reduced sag, improved handling in crosswinds, and a much more confident driving experience whether it’s loaded for a weekend trip or a cross-country adventure.

If your camper van, RV, or expedition build is constantly riding at or near its weight limit, suspension upgrades aren’t just about comfort—they’re about safety, control, and protecting your investment.

Heavy van? We have solutions.
