Question Suspension question??

Hi there,

I have a 1999 CLK320. I am looking to replace the shocks... are there actual shocks front and back??? I am looking for a softer ride(its not a sport package anyways) but I wanted some input as to what (brand)shocks should I buy for a nice soft ride.

Thank you in advance,
Mobenzo

Softer ride is not just the shocks, if much at all. It is a factor of the tire/wheel combination, the spring rate of the coil springs and the setup of the vehicle.

If you do need new struts (front) and shocks (rear) then your best bet is Bilstein Comforts, which are generally considered near OEM replacement.
