300CE suspension mods.
Got the 300CE running again. Now it's time to start with the suspension. The springs were cut by a previous owner and the struts are completely shot. And as you can see from the picture, the car is low, I think it looks pretty good but it ain't that practical, the 16" wheels scrape the wheel well at every turn.
I've found a set of new H&R springs on craigslist and planning to install Bilstein B8's on all four corners. With this setup should I go with 14 or 19mm spacers? The plan is to make this a canyon carver, but I like to keep it civil. Are there any other interesting suspension mods out there. I'm told, besides the 500E some W124 models had bigger sway bars. https://hosting.photobucket.com/imag...080&fit=bounds |
Maybe just buy some new struts and play around with the spring pad sizes. Are they cut stock springs? If so Those might ride better than a hr set.

After having one coupe on Sportline springs and sway bars with 17" wheels, I sold the springs and swapped just the bars into my other coupe. Couldn't be happier with the stock spring and Sportline sway bar combo.
