Interesting, I thought I read somewhere that 85s had the option of ABS. I'm pretty sure I have it. I went down a straight gravel road, then locked the brakes, then I put my head out the window and looked at the front tires. The tires would lock and release very regularly untill I was almost stopped, then locked up completely. I checked the car, and I don't have a box that the lines go to, but I do have speed sensors at all tires. Is this a normal MB thing?
As far as the LSD, I'll have to look more into that. It would be cool to have a rare car. A hung caliper would make sense though. I have low mpg, the car was sitting for a while before I got it, and the brakes are spongy. There are a lot of problems with this car, but for $600, I can't complain too much.
