Subject: [MBZ] A little SL work
It was past time, so today I changed the oil and filter on my
wife's 560 SL. (I drive it, too.) To do this you really have
to jack up the car and do it old-school, so I did. For a change
I didn't get too oily doing this.
While I had the car up, though, it was time to replace the loose
center drag link. I'd had a Lemforder riding around in the trunk
for awhile, awaiting this job. It went smoothly, for suspension
work, and the Harbor Freight tie rod press (small/cheap thing)
was well worth its price. (I never have any luck with pickle
forks!)
I did get _very_ oily doing this job. The steering box leaks
a bit, and everything under the car had a nice coat on it.
