1. Thanks for the reply, sounds like I need to get the factory CD. All I have is a Haynes repair manual and it doesn't show me enough. I will be looking at the suspension on my 300D and I'm considering doing the entire job....sounds like it makes sense to me.

2. I will be following up with my friend on th SDL and using your advice an doing my own inspection and follow through. The delivery seals have been replaced twice during this recent process.

3. I have one other question on my 300D - the climate control unit on the car works well.....but when I put the heat on, the heat blows full hot no regardless of th setting. I've reviewed many threads and redid the form tubing under the dash, got a used mono valve from the junk yard (that turned out to be in worst shape than mine - that resulted in not heat at times) so I replaced it with my mono valve. I can not think of anything other than rebuilding the mono valve. .....do you have nay other suggestions?
I have also tried several different control units from the junk yard .....but the heat still blows full heat regardless of the heat setting.

Ron
