RENNTech? Wow....that should be pretty pricey. I read that they relocate the mounting points which means cutting the old mounts and welding new ones on. If the springs are cut, the ride must be pretty bad. I have new Bilstein HDs on H&R springs and the ride is a bit stiff.

the ride is ok... yes its a bit stiffer, but since i put the RENNTech swaybar, the rebounding hasnt been bad at all. Im thnking of switching to Bilstein shocks....whats the part number on yours?

I thought you were trying to sell it? You're STILL putting money in it??

Also, RennTech no longer uses Koni coilovers?

Thanks!

i was trying to sell it but it seems I cant get what i want for it so I might as well keep my ML!!! I love my ML anyways.....given me no problems, always ran strong and good, big + in the big pimpin sector, and pretty quick for an SUV.

Also, RENNTech uses Koni adjustable shocks and Eibach Coilovers... but now they dont use the Koni shocks no more... they switched to some other company thats in Germany thats better then Koni!!!

Benzo,

I don't remember the part #s. Bilstein only has 1 part # for the front and 1 for the rears now. In the past, they made 2 versions of the rear shock. Now only the one.

I am waiting for H&R to release their sway bar kit. It is still TBA.

Mercedes-Benz ML270CDI -01
My ML

Here is how my ML looks right now.



I'm going to remove the extra headlights, add a roof spoiler at the back, get a newer front spoiler (from a later model or AMG or brabus), get 19", paint the grill in the same color as the car, buy a pair of bi-xenon headlights and add some kind of dvd-entertaintment system.

Below is my little C-class 180 -98.



Lots of snow here in sweden =)
