I read with great interest:

"Very likely bad torque and thrust links on the rear, both sides. They have vulcanized in place rubber bushings that contribute to the spring rate, so when they fail, the springs are "soft".

I have been chasing a soft rear on the 91 300e. I even replaced the rear springs from Fastlane but still soft. I then installed spring knuckles to raise the rear which helped, but it still isn't right.

I had the rear links checked some time ago but it seems your comments above now are hitting the nail on the head.

Question: Does the rear sink as in a lower ride height when the links are worn out?
