Can't wait for particulars
Been following Alex and Legit street cars for awhile. His extensive videos on the m113 and m113k along with the transmission have been instrumental in helping me maintain my Clk55 AMG. When he announced the ML55 AMG build I flipped. I had bought that exact model a year ago, sorted a few things and put it on the road as my daily driver/ parking lot car. Sadly he has been so busy during the holiday season and with getting the ML ready for the off road adventure I fear he hasn't had the time to lay out all the details. Still waiting to hear what kind of bolts he sourced for the body lift and whether the extended shocks caused any CV lock up on full droop. Surely that will come as time permits. There is another fellow with a you tube channel, Jon Kucyj, who has done some very fine work on his ML. Jon has some great videos on many aspects of prepping the ML for serious off road challenges.If we all keep the interest up perhaps the values will rise, but I'm just happy to have an extremely capable platform to use without paying an arm and a leg for the damned thing!
