Hello all:

I just got new front springs installed on my '87 300e (the original had a crack). Now the height of the front is about an inch higher than the back. I think I measured the distance of the fender arch from the tire as 9.5 inches! the front distance is kind of like a Subaru Forrester. I always liked Mercedes SUV's, but making mine into one wasn't my idea. Anyway, here is the kicker - it seems when I back up the front goes down to normal height and stays there when parked, but as I drive forward it elevates back to the original too high height, and stays there when I park. What gives? I should just drive in reverse all the time, right?

Perplexed,
Lui

P.S. I also had the steering box replaced and now of course the steering wheel is crooked. ( Needs alignment to fix?
