Normally any w202 estate chassis should do, but be prepared for some complications as the brakes are different, transmission, harness, radiator, etc., etc. and the list can be pretty long ![EEK!](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/eek.gif)
I have a w202 c240 estate and I will be swapping the old AMG springs and shock onto that vehicle next week, since I have upgraded the 43 with KW suspension parts.

I have an unrelated question maybe you guys can answer: I now have a 2002 clk55 motor in my c43----when i search for horsepower figures on this motor, I get either 347, or 360ish---what does it really have?
