also, what is the best way to go for new bushings? just got my $700 82 300D... front suspension is shot... actually have to fabricate a new plate/ brace for where the passenger side strut rod ties into the body... theres a reason it was $700, lol... but it came with a confirmed $786 worth of new in the box parts, mostly NOS Mercedes stuff, including a $306 Mercedes sending unit for the fuel tank... there was another 200-300 worth of little gaskets, filters, vacuum actuators and random stuff i didnt want to waste the parts guys time with looking up, and 5 factory Mercedes Service Manuals, as well as 8 other Mercedes booklets, two devoted to exploded view parts diagrams with part numbers on each part. one of the "Service Manuals" is devoted strictly to "Specialty Tools"... GREAT resource for if/ when i need to fab up a special tool. it had 291k when i got it from the original owner, kept it up meticulously (well minus the suspension, lol) the interior is in great shape... busting out the welder in a few weeks to attend to the structural issues, lol
There's no replacement for displacement... except for the TURBO IN MY BASEMENT!
