German Van Suspension & Overland Specialists

Mercedes-Benz Sprinter | Volkswagen Crafter | MAN TGE

At ALTVAN, we specialise in making Mercedes-Benz Sprinter, Volkswagen Crafter and MAN TGE vans ride better, carry better and go further. From suspension upgrades, lift kits and rear air suspension to ARB Air Lockers, auxiliary lighting and overland accessories, we supply and install carefully chosen upgrades from our workshop in Bexhill-on-Sea, East Sussex. Every van is different, so we focus on finding the right setup for how you actually use yours — whether that means improving comfort on the road, supporting extra weight or adding genuine off-road capability.

Suspension Specialists

From shock absorbers and lift kits to uprated rear springs and semi-air suspension, we build suspension setups around your van, its weight and how you actually use it.

Off-Road & Overland

We supply and install carefully selected upgrades including ARB Air Lockers, auxiliary lighting, snorkels and overland accessories for greater capability on and off the road.

Workshop Expertise

All work is carried out in-house at our East Sussex workshop, led by a Mercedes-Benz Commercial Master Technicianwith over a decade of specialist commercial vehicle experience.

RIDE BETTER. HANDLE BETTER. CARRY BETTER.

We specialise in suspension upgrades for Mercedes-Benz Sprinter, Volkswagen Crafter and MAN TGE, from simple shock absorber upgrades to complete suspension packages tailored around your vehicle and how you use it.

Whether you’re dealing with rear sag, an overloaded campervan, poor ride comfort, excessive body roll or vague handling, we can recommend the right combination of components to get the van sitting and driving as it should
