aaahhhhaaaahhh, bet y'all thought i was gonna say something about my tie rods being worn after i replaced my struts. Nope, but that's what happens if you search for it. i was wondering if anyone knew if getting tie rods from a different w124,such as a 400 or 500 or even a te, for my 300e would improve handling. I thought i might check first because my tie rods are pretty worn.

Everything is interchangeable including the tie rods, control arms, bushings etc. The only upgrades are the wagon metal rear end links (sedans are plastic) and sportline bushings. The odd man out is the 4matic cars.

Also everything from a W201/190e/190d is also interchangeable except for the springs. A lot of 190 guys swap W124 V8 springs after they've been cut.
