Yes, I need the diff mounts for the rear of the diff.   I intend to 
order the link kit from FCP.

I have some h and r lowering springs if you want to slam it. :-). I went
with OE sportline stuff and a feind swaybar yada yada.

Pretty sure I have some diff bushings if you want them. V8 bushings are
larger and I bought some small ones by mistake.

The lemforder link kit might be this one:

They used the same links for the 201 and 210 cars I believe. FCP euro 
has a

similar kit also.

Re: [MBZ] OT - Gross Incompetence. (RANT)

[Clay Monroe via Mercedes]

My view, over the past few decades of watching the tides, is that this is all 
an evolutionary process to cull the herd of debris.  Policies have been enacted 
to discourage active procreation, and spin has been induced to confound the 
soft headed sorts to meander into non productive actions which will remove 
their genes from the future.

Women now are working past their abilities to serve their primary reproductive 
functions.  They are old, but not wise in how to assist in caring for coming 
generations of humans.  Men are encouraged to do things counter to millions of 
years of breeding, and the foods we consume are destroying our DNA and ability 
to impregnate anyway.

Very much like the decline on Mercedes Benz cars.  They no longer are able to 
survive to the point of classic, let alone vintage or antique.

Vlad is flipping the bird to the west with his gas emanations.  He just flipped 
the switch on a massive gas pipeline to China a few days ago.  Their demand, 
his supply, will result in increased prices for NG in NATO nations.  Even the 
folks in AK are trying to ship CNG to our Sino buddies, as the oil fields 
become less productive.  Massive gas fields left untapped should feed some tax 
revenues to the state so it can remain moderately active.

I know Marshall was insistent on the design efforts of the engineers at
Sindelfingen being the best possible, but why is bypassing necessary for
the diesel engine but not for the gasoline engine?

Is it because the diesel engine needs a continuous flow of coolant
through the parts of the engine associated with heat to the heater core?

Is it because diesel engines do not make much heat unless they are under
load and experience wet stacking and thus the bypassing is to keep the
most heat in the engine when it is not needed elsewhere?

The different monovalve and extra parts and expense in manufacturing say
there must be a reason, but I'm not sure what the reason might be.

Well, it is not without permission.  If you read the fine print
that you agree to, it covers that stuff.  At least Google is
better than Apple or Microsoft - who don't say what they gather,
or how the use it...  Nor does Google make a user agree to NOT try

Manual transmissions are rated in ft-lb, not HP. 
And apparently it's an impulse rating, because it's common to see a rating like

Put on a pair of the Merino Wool Kirklands this AM and walked the dog for a

These things are thicker than my darn toughs, making the shoes a bit tight. 
They're also quite warm, my feet don't get cold wearing well ventilated running

So far, seem pretty decent for $3 a pair of USA knitted socks.

Yes, that part is pretty straightforward to design and execute.

Plumbing the coolant flow is where it gets fun. I need a new branch off
the coolant circuit on the other side of the existing monovalve for the
bypass circuit. Right now that branching occurs in the existing monovalve
body. This means finding a "Y" or "T" fitting of the right diameter and
splicing that in, and routing the new branch off that fitting to the newly
added monovalve / bypass circuit.

Probably had to do that to match the tractor's wheelbase.

Well she's done. Her transmission went. I'm selling her for $1000. 
Interior is near perfect, engine is strong and suspension is flawless. 
Anyone in New Jersey who's interested PM me and I will send you the address.

My request hasn’t been accepted yet.  How many miles?  What colors?

Re: [MBZ] Very nice 210 in NJ with bad transmission pump

[Floyd Thursby via Mercedes]

If I understand correctly a regular 722.6 will  bolt up to the 4matic 
stuff.  If that was closer I would be all over it, pull the tranny from 
the wrecked E300 and swap it out, would be a really nice car.  I looked 
into a new pump for the transmission, the part costs more than a used 
tranny and you have to pull it all anyway to R the pump, so not much 
point in doing that.

Re: [MBZ] 124 monovalve variations

[Meade Dillon via Mercedes]

Yes, that part is pretty straightforward to design and execute.

Plumbing the coolant flow is where it gets fun.  I need a new branch off
the coolant circuit on the other side of the existing monovalve for the
bypass circuit.   Right now that branching occurs in the existing monovalve
body.  This means finding a "Y" or "T" fitting of the right diameter and
splicing that in, and routing the new branch off that fitting to the newly
added monovalve / bypass circuit.

No, it would not be a bit of work; all you have to do is add an ice-cube
relay. With +12 to the armature, the normally-closed contact will provide
power with the signal to the coil off and the normally-open contact will
provide power with the signal to the coil on. You just have to figure out
which on-off valve to connect to which contact, i.e., when energized, does
the two-way monovalve open the heater circuit or the bypass circuit?

[MBZ] 124 monovalve variations

[Meade Dillon via Mercedes]

I compared the '94 gasser monovalve to the '95 E300 monovalve, and the
major difference is that the E300 version has a bypass around the heater
core, so the valve is two-way and either feeds coolant to the heater core
or bypasses the heater core.   Gasser has no bypass, so the valve is simple
on-off.

One way to re-engineer would be replace the $450 valve (two-way) with two
on-off valves, one on the heater core circuit and one on the bypass
circuit, controlled so that either one or the other is open.  That would be
a bit of work, but less expensive than a new monovalve.
