Yes ceika is the Newest option

so so sad that it took all these years to start seeing these kits come out

if they had these ten years ago I wouldn't be sitting with a dead cl500 in storage that's now not worth reviving

Yes what is wrong with the yellowspeeds

I did think about the ceika option , but it looks to track devoted too many parts for every day dirt to get into and work its magic

what's wrong ?
Just that I want harder damping and asked them about several changes
they do'nt even know what the kit they send you comes with

these other one in Hong Kong is used to make custom and drift or race suspensions

for regular drivers, or like you drive in the US, all straight, not fast, yellowspeed is ok

Camber adjustable top-plates are only used on McPherson Struts. That is because the strut itself performs camber control.

The W215/220 and subsequent models used multi-link front suspension, which has double-wishbone type geometry. Camber control is performed by the upper suspension link, not the suspension strut.

2002 CL500 to CL55 conversion
So,
has anyone been able to install the Ceika coil overs? One of my strutmasters units are leaking after a few years so this would be a good opportunity to upgrade to something with more adjustability


AND

anybody have any developments with fitting the s430/s500 sway bar to the subframe of the cl500/cl600? I hear this is an easy swap
