Anyone ever done this?

Our conversion kits are designed to be direct replacements for your vehicle's hydraulic suspension. They require no modification to your vehicle and are designed to "bolt on" without any welding or cutting.
Installing one of our kits is easy. If you can do a brake job, you can install this kit. Strutmasters can also help you find a local mechanic if you need one to do the installation for you.

Mercedes wants to hit me up for $2800 to replace my rear hydraulic struts. Then I would imagine that I will get to fix the pump and hoses next. This conversion set seems to good to be true.........................

I saw in the W220 thread that some other people are doing this with good results. My S420 came with normal spring/shocks and its ride was great so I think I will be doing this.
