Max, Peter, et al. Thanks for the insights. I am really looking forward to being semi-prone and dirty and cold and pi**sed-off this weekend. Wish me luck! ( Or perhaps, patience) Thanks. Fred

The bolts for the half axles (and the half-moon washers) are one-time-use, but you'll probably be safe if you clean the bolts with a wire brush and use lock-tite. Other than that, just dirty, heavy work. Watch out for damaging the SLS hydraulic lines. -- Max Dillon Charleston SC '87 300TD '95 E300 On December 1, 2015 7:20:04 PM EST, Fred Moir via Mercedes <mercedes@okiebenz.com> wrote: >FFolks. > >I going to be replacing the pumpkin for the '87 300TD this weekend and >I wanted to ask if there were any caveats?
