2003 E500
E500 Suspension

Hello. I am a noobie 2003 E500 owner. i bought a "needs a little work" E500, which was bottomed out on all 4 corners. After replacing the Air pump, and 1 Front strut, the vehicle "rose up on all 4 corners. a day later, i noticed that the ride height had dropped about 2 inches. i contacted the previous owner and he said the car was always low. how do i figure out "how" the car was lowered as i hope to return it to stock ride height. thanks, adam

Soapy water test....

This was completed on a x164 class vehicle, but it's all the same concept....
