I'm cleaning out my garage. I've got a front & rear Sportline sway bar kit for the W124 chassis, it will fit all 6-cylinder sedans. It will NOT fit V8 models. The front Sportline bar is 27.5mm with 22mm ends (stock is 26.5 and 18.0). The rear Sportline bar is 16.5mm (stock is 15mm on most models, 13mm on some.) I upgraded to larger bars a while ago and no longer need these.

What you get is listed below - prices shown are current dealer list:

124-323-68-65 ---- Sportline front bar, $160
124-326-19-65 ---- Sportline rear bar, $149
124-323-45-85 ---- Front inner bushing, 27.5mm, $18.00/pair
124-323-51-85 ---- Front outer bushing, 22.0mm, $17.00/pair
124-326-01-81 ---- Rear bushing, 16.5mm, $8.00/pair

Price is $250 for everything, plus shipping. Shipping costs will be $25-$45 depending on zipcode, email me for a quote.

Being that a work for MB - these are good prices!

Ortolan

Are these all new parts?
How much would shipping to Australia cost?

RBYCC

PM sent...I'll take them.....do you take PAYPAL ???

dragonfli_VF

if he ain't I'll definitely pay you for them...

put me down for 2nd dibs!

AMGDave

Thanks for the replies everyone. These bars are used, but in very good shape, they weren't on the car that long. The rear bar still has the sticker on it from the dealer. Shipping to Australia would probably be almost as much as the kit, you'd be better off trying to work out a better price at your local dealership.

Anyway, RBYCC has first dibs (replied to the PM with S&H quote, and yes I accept PayPal) and otherwise dragonfli_VF has second dibs.

Thanks again!

RBYCC

I grabbed them...
Seems you were thinking the same !!
How are you making out with the TT install?
Hoping to get my base line dyno this week...

dragonfli_VF

nuts! you're going to need something beefier to hold that monster twinturbo... give me the OEM+ stuff LOL

hey ortolan, if you source some in oz, let me know,,cheers

Ortolan

I'll head down to the mechanic tomorrow to check on progress. If everything is on track I would expect the engine to be in the car by now.

Ortolan

I'll try to remember to ask my mechanic the dealership price of this kit here in AU.

RBYCC

The 225/40-18 Falken FK452's should hold it to the road...the Sportlines will keep the cornering lean down a bit...
The original Turbotechnic cars didn't even have the Sportlines !!!

Mine's been sitting at the installer since Monday 3/26.
Waiting for a slot in their shop schedule to get it started.
Was hoping for the base line dyno this week...
Will check again today.

Thanks for the interest, everyone!

dont you have a wife?How the hell do you get away with buying all these toys?

RBYCC

Maybe because I'm a lot older then most on the forum, worked hard, have owned a business for over twenty years, and during this period I didn't have the time for my main enjoyment which is cars.

So now as I approach sixty, I'm returning to that which I have a passion for !!!!

At some point you got to do what you want to do or else you may never do it !!!!

P.S.

A wife should never stop you from anything, as long as you're not taking away from the family !!!!

RBYCC, what were you running before? have you upgraded shocks/struts as well? or are you going to?

RBYCC

Suspension has been untouched since I purchased the car new in May of 1988.

Incredible that the original struts and shocks were still functioning after nineteen years and only 63K miles. The boots for the struts had turned to dust, so I installed front Bilstein HD struts with new bumpers and boots and HD shocks on the rear.

Probably won't lower the car, so the Bilstein Sports were not considered.
With the HD's and the Sportline sways it would be set up similar to a very early AMG W124.

Reason I didn't want to lower is where the intercooler for the turbos will be located.
The TurboTechnics intercooler mounts parallel to the block, down low on the passenger side frame rail. It then is covered on the top by a Fiberglass shield which creates a bit of a plenum.
Not sure if lowering the car would affect airflow and heat loss ability of the intercooler.
