So, Secondaries. Did you ever try the w126 shocks on the w123? If so what model did you for? I'm also looking for something with less travel distance than the bilstein HD

jt20, I know wagons are taller in the rear due to SLS. But regarding the fronts - did you use bilstein sports or even hd's from w126 on the t123 wagon?

Check it, yo! 300sel at Pick your part, last day in the yard before they take it out Scored a set of H&R springs and b8 billies as seen below If the info from this thread is to be believed, these shocks are gonna work on my 300d. Okay, so I already had the H&R lowering springs for my 300d, not the ones pictured but actual ones made for w123, now these relatively young shocks, and let's see what happens. Now, like the Source of Mercedes says on his video, you never know if a used shock is good just by bench testing it. I agree. But what's the worst can happen? I'd need to buy new shocks? Big deal PyP Price: "spring and shock" $15 each x 4 = $60 with tax and stuff = $70 Guy's, it's time to lower the 300d. Booya!
