Stock 202 shocks?
 
FastLane and other web parts houses give Bilstein Heavy Duty and Sports as buying options for both front and rear. Are "comforts" the OEM for '94-'97 202's? If not that would leave H.D. since I know the Sports are for Sportsline.

Boge, Koni and KYB are also listed so I don't even know if Bilstein was the OEM shock manufacturer. :confused:

Thanks in advance to anyone who may know!

I have the stock shocks from my 98 C230 with about 18k miles on them sitting on a shelf in my garage - I switched to Koni adjustables for the firmer ride. I can dig them out and see if there is a brand and/or part number on them if you want. (Assuming the 280 used the same shocks as the 230).

No need to go thru the trouble, John but I appreciate the offer.

I have the part #'s for both front and rear so I'll call the dealer and ask them.

I've been tinkering with the idea to convert the C supsension to Sportsline. *someone please slap me before I do it* :D

Thanks again!
