SL/R230: Goodbye ABC, SL55 ABC To Coilovers Finally

Goodbye ABC, SL55 ABC To Coilovers Finally
Hello mates,
Well I'm writing that my car is being converted from the ABC suspension to Coilovers. The suspension of a used NON-ABC SL350 R230.
Monday the car will be done, I can't say that I'm not afraid of the changes that might occur to the driving quality. I'm concerned about the stability of the car, and the danger that those struts will not handle the power of the 55 AMG.
I took the risk to be doing this conversion, knowing that I might regret it. But ABC became tiring with too many failures occurring.
The conversion costed me 800$ + all the ABC parts. Including the installation. I noticed that the new struts have H&R Springs Lowering kit.
On monday, I will get back to you either telling you guys to do this conversion, or never consider it.
Here are the part numbers you might need for the conversion:
2303230800
2303210204
2303230020
2303202111
2303200589
2303200689
2303260900
2303240204
2303260064
2303200511
2113203389
2113230068
I hope this was helpful
Wish me luck.
