Hmm åke, hur hadde du tänkt å få främre att passa på en w201a??
De finns ju inte en vinkel som är rätt--

After trying to find a company in germany that actually could deliver this kit, i talked with Sandtler. So in about a month my H&R motorsport suspension kit with Nürburgring Nordschleife Abstimmung will arrive. €1257 with UPS delivery to my door is a pretty good deal.

Hi Mikael,
keep am eye on the rear shocks. They made trouble sometimes. That´s why we changed into Bilstein shocks.

[JM Motorsport]

So my H&R Rennen kit mit Nordschleife Abstimmung is finally here. Im also getting my rear subframe back next week, so its soon time for assembly

Finally my subframe is done. Powder coated in satin black, will probably outlive the car. Time has come to put it all back together. Just need to sandblast and paint rear brake headshields

Hi Mikael,

looks pretty good, better than a new one
Ich bin schon sehr auf deinen Wagen gespannt.

Today was probably the first time in months i actually spent more the 20 min in the garage. Started to put the rear subframe back together again. I trial fitted all parts, and noticed something interesting. All the fasteners kit supplied with my linkage arms was m12 bolts, and my old ones where m10 bolts. Started up EPC and yes, a few years ago Mercedes apparently decided to switch to M12 bolts, this wasn't really a problem, except that some of my new linkage arms was of the the old type with M10 bolts. So now i need 2 new bolts and nuts for each side, and there's no way i could find that on a Sunday. I really want put it back together tomorrow, so ill used the old ones tomorrow, and replace them later next week when i can get some brand new M10s.

Hopefully i can put everything back together tomorrow ( except the diff, needs to be reconditioned first).

Well after a couple of hours in the garage today i manage to put the rear subframe back together. Johan dropped by and took my head apart, thank you!
