PHEW! OK.... I got under the car last night, and here's what I found... the previous owner had tack welded in some sort of temporary brackets, for what reason, I don't know cuz they weren't connected to anything at all... but from the side of the car as well as from inside the motor compartment, they looked like leaf springs. But anyway, after we crawled under the car, we could tell they were just useless bs, and with a few hits from a grinder, they were gone.........
Now then, with that said, yes, the original springs are still installed. However, they obviously aren't enough to do the job, so I really really need a set of the 4.5 springs as suggested. Does anyone have a set or know where we can get a set? There's no one here where I live that deals with older model used MB parts. Moreover, we're wanting to take this thing to a car show next weekend, but I HAVE to get the springs replaced to be able to do that. The passenger front tire is hitting the outer fender when we turn the wheels to the right thanks to the sagging. Also, how can you tell if the bushings are in good shape, or if they need to be replaced?
