I despised the combination back in the mid 1970s when it showed up in Chyslers. Had a buddy with one, and a few years later a lady friend drove one as well. Just rubbed me the wrong way. clay I have no pronouns please do not refer to me. > On Apr 16, 2020, at 8:09 AM, Andrew Strasfogel

[MBZ] Tie Rod/Steering Rack Boot R - W163/ML500

The boot on the driver’s side of the steering rack on the ML500 is torn, so I want to replace it. I’ve got the MB kit along with a new tie rod. It looks pretty straightforward, but I was wondering how much of a pig of a job it is to get the boot installed on the steering rack. And yes, I know

$5k, maybe. The exterior looks pretty solid. Bumpers are a mess, but that’s not uncommon. The interior scares me. Dash wood is shot, dash pad is shot as well. What’s weird is that normally the dash pad would be bad (cracked) but the wood decent, or at least maybe a little bleached out. I have

A FLAPS load tester does exactly that, by pressing a button it loads the battery through a loaded heat sink device and measures battery "reserve under load" on the meter... I have one from Harbor Fright that works fine.. low cost, but handy to have handy.. On Thu, Apr 16, 2020 at 10:58 PM Scott
