Sprinter 906
Rear Bumper – Steel, Spring Loaded
Details & Technology
A hot-dip-galvanized steel step is fitted at the rear of the vehicle, with fore/aft springing
provided by four leaf springs. The leaf springs allow free fore/aft movement of the rear step
in a forward direction (in the direction of travel). The rear step is bolted to the standard-fit
securing points in the longitudinal frame members. Designed as a safety grating, the step
area is compliant with German accident prevention regulations. The step measures approx.
68.9" x 9.6" (L x W) and is about 17.25" above ground.
Benefits & Arguments
Impact protection
•
Safe and easy access to load compartment
•
The spring-mounted rear step allows easy entry and exit and can prevent or mitigate damage
to the vehicle in the event of a collision with an obstacle such as a loading ramp if the vehicle
is reversed without due care (the protective effect depends on the speed and angle of the
impact).
