CLK W208
spring pads question

had a few question about the spring pads, specifically the rear ones.

1. in the rear , is there a pad on the top and bottom of the springs or just top? or just bottom?

2. whats the thickest pad that i can use for the back? i like the back to sit a little higher than the front?

3. i heard we can use E class w210 pads for the back that are a bit thicker(taller than ours. is that true?

thanks in advanced.

There are only spring pads on the top of the spring, and I believe you can go up to the #5 pad which is the tallest, and yes 210 pads will work as well. I have a quick question for you, I am going to PM

Williams,
These are the part #s for the w210 pads correct?
For our 208, are the part #s different?

I replaced mine with the w210's but the pads I have that they took out read the part #s for the w210 haha

Hoping they didnt get mixed up.

Thanks
