Guys, thanks for the replies on the "wanderer".
to respond:
- the 300E is unfortunately a more modern rear suspension. The S-Class uses the old subframe with swing arms. I replaced the subframe bushings and diff support, which are reported to be "wander culprits". Toe is in spec, I would adjust it a bit, but it's not adjustable as far as I can discern.
- I run about 34 psi on the tires, I have tried a lot lower, but never higher than 35, I might pump them to 40 and make a trial run. Of course then it would ride like a tank (wait, it is a tank!).

Thanks again, any comments welcome. Right now if you told me to hang a crow's foot from the mirror and burn incense in the ash tray, I'd try it!

cheers,
DG
