Agree with all of that, but if crucial parts are NLA then options become limited. In that case coilovers may be a way to keep the car out of the junkyard. Not that they are ideal or really even a decent substitute. On Fri, Oct 6, 2023, at 16:07, Floyd Thursby via Mercedes wrote: > To my way of

Re: [MBZ] 2005 SL 500 - 86k miles - $12,000

I presume they are as they’re also an option for ours. Different chassis’, but the setup is similar. Based on what I’ve read and researched, “just” putting coilovers on doesn’t really fix the issue, as you’ll also have to convert your tandem power steering pump to a “single” pump as well. And…
