    Since this post, I ended up having to replace the factory pneumatic compensator and spring for the static compensating spring on the diff. I cut 3 coils in the rear, 1.75 off the compensating spring and like 2.75 off the fronts. If I cut anymore than 3 in the rear, the springs will fall out when I jack the car up

    So being impatient and hoping to have air ride i went ahead and chopped 3 coils out of the from, like 2 in the rear. I also cut the bump stops in half. Hella smart right!? the car is still very drivable not to bouncy rubs like mad when turning in parking lots but I'm in love with these old Mercs! It's great having such a positive community of knowledgeable and helpful people on forums like this too.

    Rolling static on Country roads in a 40 year old car has me replacing a lot of rubber bushings, and assorted suspension components. Looking for suggestions on air bag setups (cups, what bags, etc..) any help would be mucho appreciated.
