C-Class W204 Elegance
C63 AMG Suspension to Standard W204

Hello All,

I was wondering if I can install C63's shock absorbers and springs on my standard (luxury version) C-Class. Will they fit in the first place? Did anyone try this in the past?

Just a note, I changed the front lower arms and knuckles with the C63 ones in order to install C63's brake calipers without any issues. Therefore, the front end should be fairly similar. However, I am not sure about the rear end.

Thank you

I would say it will fit 100%, they are the same chassis, im going to swap my c300 with a c63 and I looked at a few crashed c63s and they share everything, the bolt holes are all their.

Check that the rear track is the same, the drive shafts maybe a different length.
Also your car will be lighter so it will ride higher and you may need to change the springs and/or shims to get it right.

I am in the process of trying to use the AMG lower control arm for more camber with stock C300 components besides a AMG KW Clubsport set.
The toe will not go into spec. It is Toe'd in like crazy on the passenger side.

Do you think the AMG steering knuckle geometry is completely different than the stock c300 one?

Did you change all 4 control arms in the front? Or just the 2 lowers?
