Hi everyone,
I have unfortunately molested a 1992 300SE (S320), and it is pretty damn low but I'd like to go lower.
I am looking into replacement shocks and the Bilstein B8 Sprints are the obvious choice, but are almost £700 in the UK, which is outrageous. I am hopefully looking to find some naturally shorter shocks which would be able to deal with the weight a bit better. I am not too fussed about driving it hard around corners as that is not something you tend to do an inch or two off the floor. I am simply looking for comfort and a bit more lows. I understand in W124s you can fit early Ford Ranger shocks which are much shorter, and bolt straight in. Is there anything similar for us W140 drivers?
Thanks,
Dan
