Coupe H&R springs on a cab...

just picked up a set of coupe H&R springs for my cab. i've read a lil bit on here about guys doin this and running the #5 pads in the rear to even out the drop and avoiding the reverse rake look.

anyways... i'm here to ask a few questions, hope to get some help.

first question... those who are running this set up, how is it working out for you? got any pix of the current stance?

what are the part numbers for these pads i read alot about?

any and all info and suggestion are welcome and appreciated.

cheers,

-Rick

Mercedes-Benz makes pads in thicknesses of 5, 9, 13, 17, and 21 mm. These are the pad part numbers and their thickness -

Front:
210-321-01-84 5mm
210-321-02-84 9mm
210-321-03-84 13mm
210-321-04-84 17mm
210-321-05-84 21mm

Rear:
210-325-01-84 5mm
210-325-02-84 9mm
210-325-03-84 13mm
210-325-04-84 17mm
210-325-05-84 21mm - discontinued

The pads are on top of the springs and have raised dots on them. The number of dots corresponds to the eighth digit in the part number, which tells you how thick they are. If you reach into the wheel well and feel the dots on your pads, you’ll know which pads you currently have. They will probably differ from front to back.
