Which springs have the least amount of drop?
Hey everybody, I was wondering if you guys can tell me which aftermarket springs give the least amount of drop. I prefer a 1" drop. Also, is there any thing in particular I need to know when changing out the springs? I've worked on a lot of different suspensions (vw, hondas and other strut type suspensions), but never a mercedes. Thanks in advance.

How about you start with the Mod/DIY sticky up top prior to just simlpy asking. This may sound harsh but your questions have already been covered numerous times.
