Thanks,!!! I was suspicious of a 201 anti-roll bar beginning with "124" because differences in chassis dimensions mean that 201 and 124 bars are not interchangeable. I guess I copied down the wrong number when I was jotting down the data. At the time I was looking for a slightly larger rear bar to reduce understeer. The parts book does not provide thickness, but knowing what models have different part numbers told me where to look.

It appears that the 16V may have a slightly larger rear bar, but I dropped the idea after doing a track event and realizing that both the suspension and gearing needed major rework along with the addition of a LSD to be track competent. Being as how I have two other cars that are very track competent with just minor suspension tuning I decided to never take the 190E 2.6 to the track again and just use it for normal driving and long distance touring at which it is superb.

The 16V gearbox and LSD differential and a 3.0L M103 engine would make the 2.6 much more sporty, but I decided it wasn't worth the cost and effort to do all the modifications. It's too bad Mercedes never build such a 190E 2.6 "Sport". I was never attracted to the 16V because I wanted the inherent smoothness and higher torque of a larger I6, and the 16V was too close in concept and performance to my Cosworth Vega. The shim under bucket valve adjustment also turned me off. The CV is shim over bucket and just requires a special tool to swap shims.

I don't have any information on anti-roll bars for any models other than 201s. I just went to the dealer and found a friendly parts guy who looked them up for me. Anyone else should be able to do the same for other models.
