I have the springs for sunroof cars for $159.00 each -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of L. Mark Finch Sent: Tuesday, May 02, 2006 8:04 PM To: Mercedes Discussion List Subject: [MBZ] spring time
I heard and felt a clunk in the right front while I was driving my 1982 300D today. It still steered and rode OK but it did rattle when I ran over bumps, so I took it pretty easy on the way home. A little while ago I stuck a trouble light under the car to see what I could see, which was this: http://katzenfinch.com/spring/spring1.jpg http://katzenfinch.com/spring/spring2.jpg I did back away slowly after I got a good look at what the problem appears to be, and came back inside to price coil springs. Rusty has what seems to me to be a decent price on them, but they're marked "NOTE: Front without sunroof" -- a bummer, since my car has a sunroof. Out of curiosity, how do the coil springs differ between cars with and without sunroofs? I have no plans to tackle this repair on my own, but would be interested in any theories as to what the hell happened. --mf _______________________________________ http://www.striplin.net For new parts see official list sponsor: http://www.buymbparts.com/ For used parts email [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://striplin.net/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_striplin.net
