My 1987 420 SEL has 230,000 miles and runs great, but rides harsh over bumps. The shocks pass the test of pushing up and down on the fenders and watching for excessive rebound. I don't have the original service records so don't know when shocks were last replaced. What is the average life of W126 shocks? Any recommended replacements other than OEM?
