I cannot understand why shops are afraid of Benzes. They do have a lot of specialty engineered into them, especially on electronics and other systems, but a simple spring change? What kind of excuses were they giving?

im thinking about using lowering springs in the front and just lowering the back using the air ride. I wanna lower the front about 2 inches. what kind of springs do you guys recommend? do any of you know any reputable shops in the SoCal area that works on mercedes? Thanks

swapping lowering springs on a e320 or e350 sedan is not very difficult. ALL wagons have self levelling rear suspension to compensate any extra weight they may carry. E500 and e550 wagons/sedans have standard airmatic suspension. These can be lowered via an electronic module from renntech/brabus etc... or via star diagnose. e320's and e350 sedans have an optional airmatic package.

I had an '06 E350 Sport and used H&R springs and it lowered 2". H&R lowers more than Eibach (1.5"). I now have an '07 E350 Saks Fifth Ed. and thinking of lowering it again. I'm in SoCal and there's a place in L.A. who did mine for $350 installed. I need to remember the place or find the receipt.

The place in L.A. is called EuroRev. Ask for Vincent. Here's what they did to my '07 E350 Saks.

Jumping in on this topic as I just ordered the rear spoiler in the group buy deal... I need to drop it now... 19's been on too long now...hehee
Will I need to get alignment after spring install?
Best Spring for 06 E350?
I read the front sometimes sits higher than rear with the lowering springs... true?
ANY DIYers have tips?
Its only friggin springs... how hard can it be... inside or outside spring compressor??? I have not gotten under the car yet to see....
thans
