Is anyone aware of shorter, stiffer springs available for the 300TE 4Matic? The front springs on the 4Matic vehicles are of a special configuration that allows the front drive shafts to pass through them, so springs for the 2WD 300TE won't work. Any information is appreciated

Sorry these are very special springs. And how many wagon owners do you know that want to lower them? Not a real demand for this product.

Whenever you shorten springs; the spring rate also changes, so if you wanted to lower your 4-Matic this might suit your needs. Remember that if you cut them too much new ones are going to "COST". I wouldn't cut very much off at a time, also there are rubber pads at the top of the springs & various thicknesses are available. Always realign after any mods are done.
