OK, I am getting new Bilstein shocks in front, Sachs-Boge self leveling shocks and Febi accumulators in the rear. The car is still perfectly level even when loaded.
1. While the car is up, the shop says the castor adjustors have wear (small). Does it make sense to do this now? From what I have seen, it relates to the front end alignment. I am getting confused looking at parts. Is this what I need x 2?

2. Deciding whether to have the ball joints done at the same time though
there is no inspection reports of wear noted and the car does not
present any tracking issues. Is it possible to check anything when it is not on the lift? Two boots and two boot kits, correct? Just wanting to get everything tight again. The black sedan is all done and it made a world of difference, but...just in time for two huge tree branches to smash the top in the middle. Sighhhh!
3. Where is the hydraulic suspension filter located for the self leveling suspension in the rear?

4. I have to wait on the Rear Control Arms. Told they have some play. Not sure how to feel this when driving.
Thanks

also, that's just hte upper hose. the lower hose might just be available
only in tructec or genuine mercedes, so you might have to get the lower
one in genuine or just live with the tructec. seems i too have a special
agreement with monark to sell you those hoses, but i'd probably get a
genuine one if i were you if the tructec actually turns out chinese
