Time for an update.
We took the Sprinter to Moab from Denver over the weekend. All mountain freeway and twisty back roads to get there.
While we went out to camp off Kane Creek. Then explored and found the back dirt trails from Moab to Gateway, CO. In total we did a few hundred miles of dirt tracks. Van was loaded with all our normal camper set up, two adults, one 3yo, and two large dogs and all the standard gear that comes with them. On top of that we had 3 bike, 2 paddle boards, etc. What better way to test out the suspension set up.
The first thing to note is that the van settled quite a bit after putting some miles on it. I tried to get it to settle before putting in the camber shims with not much luck. I'd suggest driving the van a few miles after the lift install to see how yours settles and then decide on the camber shims.
Over all the van handled great! No issues in the wind. (I added a front sway bar to my 3500 awhile back which makes a big difference). We spent quite a bit of time on rough roads and there seem to be no odd handling quirks of the lift. I also tend to run the 75mph limit (or more) on the mountain freeway when possible and the van handles the high speed corners with ease. Never felt "more tippy" do to the lift.
This picture is at about 8,400ft overlooking the canyon lands between Moab and Gateway. It drops thousands of feet straight off. It was freaky even parking the van that close to the edge. There is a few feet of trees and then it just vanishes to the valley floor.
Kane Creek switchbacks.
The only problem I've had so far with the lift is that my 12yo Wolf Hybrid has a harder time getting in the van now
