Tell me more! I've got a 201 that needs a new joint. I have a new Lemforder part too, but no tools. I wasn't interested in the solid-gold MB tool and was going to take it to a shop, but HF prices are more my speed. I just didn't think it would work at all. What kind of adapter? What's it look like? Do I need the optional adapter kit they sell for theirs? > Internal type, which is a copy of the Klann but mucho cheapero... > The aftermarket manual I have for the 201 chassis shows them using an > external set of spring compressors, guess that would work if they are > heavy duty enough but the way I figure it, by the time I have done the The 201 had a strut, the shock is inside the spring. You must use an external type on it. I actually have the real-deal Klann internal one, but I've never had to use it yet. I'm surprised, or else lucky so far. I got in on the list group purchase. -- Jim _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com 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://okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
