The front were a pain in the butt man. I got the IRS rear and wishbone style up front. My Lower control arms up front look like L shapped hunks of metal the spring sits in it and the sway bar is linked to it. For the fronts I used a merc specific spring compressor .Originally posted by conski View PostOh okay, I didn't realize H&R made differed in their construction of the coils. I have the ones that have the coils closer together on one side with the dead coils as well. Thanks for answer my questions though. I have heard some people complain when they take the pads off and some think it is still smooth. I have to get a spring compressor to test it out. The jack process is a pain in the ass in the front on the w124's lol. I'm guessing you have a dual link lower control arm on your's as well, right? The rears are super easy just the fronts are killer.
Will be going back to the original OEM chrome grill and badges =DOriginally posted by Jenewein View PostYou are awesome. Love the car. Glad you ditched the sticker bomb look.
Its a tad raked but not much. mercs always have that lower in the rear look. Cannot go any lower in the front unless i move to smaller wheels/ tires im rubbing on the inner top part of the fender and dont really feel like cutting through to the engine bay like bagged mini trucks do to get the frame on the ground. she can throw sparks driving on flat ground when i got passengers how it is.Originally posted by P78 View Posttoo low in the back or too high in the front
it's sitting on its ass
otherwise great 'budget' build
Hondamonster: im thinking about poking the wheels out more +0
Thanks for the love everyone. And the constructive criticism. i actually need to replace my ambers. The tab broke off from vibration i guess and now it gets condensation inside sometimes.
