You will probably need to take the rear suspension apart to properly diagnose it, my bet is on tired springs and tired rubber (subframe bushings, spring pads, differential mount). Additionally could be a broken spring or two. Rear lower control arms can rust and collapse too. This is a big job (removing the entire rear axle assembly), approach with caution. You probably can get away with just the springs, pads, and the two front bushings (not lower control arm bushings but the front two "horns" of the carrier, located underneath and just below and behind the rear doors). Differential mount is also fairly easy.
Read up in the factory service manual, there are different spring and spring pad combinations depending on optional equipment installed at the factory (i.e. automatic transmission, air conditioning, sunroof). The front end / tire wear problem is not related. ------------- Max Charleston SC _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com All posts are the result of individual contributors and as such, those individuals are responsible for the content of the post.
