I remember putting air shocks on my buddy’s 65 Impala SS so he could fit those 
big tires. We all thought it was totally cool. It’s a wonder none of us killed 
ourselves doing it with just a bumper jack holding the car up, crawling down 
under it. 

The car rode like a log wagon after as there was basically no spring action in 
the suspension just whatever the air shocks did.

Re: [MBZ] Why do morons brag about things like this?

2021-02-05 Thread Randy Bennell via Mercedes

It is really just a different point of view. Automotive fads come and go.
Remember back in the late 60s early 70s, all the Camaros with jacked up 
rears and big tires trying to look like drag cars? No real purpose to it 
as it screwed with the handling but the young guys loved it.
Sort of the same as all of the jacked up pickups with lift kits and big 
tires. Most are never used off road and that would actually be OK, but 
they shouldn't be allowed to drive around on the streets.

First thing I would do is put a scanner on it and see what codes it is 
throwing (or stored in the systems).  There might be some other clues in 
the ECU or some other nanny that will indicate where the problem is.  
Good negotiating points.


On these newer cars you really need a scan tool.  I have a $150 
iCarsoft, there are others in the $150-200 price range that do about the 
same thing.
