W210 Interchangable suspension parts

Just out of curiosity i was wondering if there are any shocks that are shorter than the w210 from any other model of benz that would be a straight bolt in on a w210...as my car is rediculously low and cannot handle a standard height shock i would need to buy new shocks plus have them shortened. Which is a bit out of budget.

Mainly enquiring about the fronts as they just dont seem to be doing their job.

Im about as low as you are, and I run koni yellows. Standard length. Never bottomed out once.

Did you ever run this low on standards shocks?

Yes and it felt like a boat and bottomed out on the freeway all the time.
