Suspension Rebuild Question

[Chris Bell]

I'm in the process of rebuilding the front suspension on my 1988 300 SEL (W126) and I hve a couple of questions.

First, is it essential to replace the eccentric pins on the lower control arms. The ones I removed look pretty good, no rust, still somewhat shiny.

Second, I thought the guide rod mount kit came with new bolts to mount the subframe bearing bracket to the chassis? My kit did not come with these bolts, is this normal.
