Replaced front struts and steering damper

Yesterday, I replaced the original front struts and the steering damper. The steering damper was shot and easy to replace. The front struts were straightforward, but I'm still sore from breaking the mounting bolts and re-torquing the replacements. Along with the M-B Chassis manual, the DIY article was a huge help. Now that all of the dampers and struts are replaced, the change in the ride and steering of the old Benz is amazing.

It's raining here this weekend, but I'll get some photos soon.
