I have a 2500 2wd sprinter and ordered the front sumo spring. Do I need to do the rear as well?

Adding the Rear SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs # SSR-329-47 is not going to be required on your 2016 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500 but it will help if you are getting a lot of sag or road shock through your suspension. These will simply replace the hard rubber springs that came on your Sprinter to give you better suspension characteristics. These progressive springs have a capacity up to 900lbs at 50% compression.

Often times the Front SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs # SSF-106-40 are only added in situations where a lot of additional weight is added to the front of your Sprinter. This is common on RV conversions and work vans.
