Thanks but

Great information but surely Mercedes gave a tolerance for these wheel base lengths?

I mean when you adjust the camber or the caster on the front suspension (or on the rear for that matter) you move the centre of the wheel to a different position - thus not all W123s sedans will have a wheel base of exactly 2795 mm - it will be something like 2795 mm +/- say 15 mm for example.

Does anyone know this tolerance?
