Hello!
I have a MB W211 wagon 2004 with rear air springs and I want to convert it to coil springs.
I also need to change the rear shocks and I want to know if it possible to use other type of shocks. NOT this one
Amazon Amazon
.
It possible to use normal type (monotube) of shoks? Like this ones
Amazon Amazon
?
If its possible pls give me some models and some parts numbers.
Thank you very much!

FYI: The shocks on the 4-matic wagons with code 489 suspensions are different than ones without. Oh and they cost a lot more. I started another thread about that here:

If I will install coil spring I want to put normal shoks(cheaper one). I don't need 4-matic shocks, I want to know if is possible to install normal shokcs without electronics and other stuff on it.
Thank you very much!
