Richard, I have a set from a 98 W210 E430 sitting in the garage, albeit in NJ. Let me know if you want them.

What are you doing, restoring OEM in order to sell the car? I kept mine for that purpose, but then I thought why bother with the expense (shop will whack me $400 for the labor). Nobody would ever notice it was lowered if I do sell it.

Haha, I actually live in Jersey and work all around Asia. One hell of a commute I tell ya.

Is there a difference between 4matic and a two wheel drive Eclass? Maybe because the 4matic's are heavier.

The rear spgs are identical to a 2wd....but the front are the problem. On a 4matic the front suspension is very different as far as the lower control arms and ft. struts. They springs are similar to a 2wd but the last 2 or so lower coils have a smaller diameter so they can sit right in the ft. strut lower cup.....agh. Anyone have a set??
