Joe:

The problem with the wagon is the hydraulic rear shocks--they're pretty darn expensive and I don't think a "sport" version is available (I may be wrong about that). I just put some Eibach lowering springs on my 94 E320 wagon and am pleased with the results. Not sure what my next move will be. I asked the folks here about Sportline equipment for the wagon and they gave me a detailed response, but if memory serves me, there isn't much to be had for the rear axle in terms of shocks or anti-roll bars. I lost the info they sent me; I asked for it again (and apologized for losing their first response) but I never heard from them again. I musta cheesed them off somehow. Anyway, a good place to start is with the springs. I'm about an inch lower but there has been no noticeable degradation in ride quality and I haven't bottomed out on anything yet. It feels a little more confident in the curves now too.

Hope this helps

Bill
