I just ordered a pair of the RH thread ends, about $7/each. Rather than pop $40+ for the whole rod, I’ll find some threaded rod at my local Ace Hardware and make one up to measure. Fortunately, the EPC does designate whether they’re RH or LH thread. Thanks again for the suggestion! -D > O

On my spare the adjustment range is a minimum of 3" to a max of 4" with about 5mm in the bore. I don't see any numbers on the parts themselves but there is a small stamp in each R or L respectively. The one you want with the right hand thread is 123 328 00 63. The threads are the size that us

That sounds like the same piece that is used on the w123 TD for the rear leveling of the suspension. The ends are available for like around $5-$8 if I remember the last ones I bought. Or you can get the complete piece with the thread part for around $40 or so. I'll try to find the number. M

This car has xenon headlights. A part of this system is two level sensors, one at the front and one at the rear. The sensor is bolted to the vehicle frame and a lever on the sensor, using much like a sway bar link, is connected to the lower control arm at that location. I found the rear sensor
