Not to rain on anyone's parade, but please make sure you know what up when messing with suspension and then hitting 150+. Not bashing, just been there.
The rear camber arm is more complicated than the picture shown. That design has been out for ages and it does not adapt to the W211. That is the same style as what Lensolo was making for the W203s and we tried to get them on the W211s. The arm needs to be bent, which makes adjustment on the car difficult. Just a heads up to the sponsor before he throws too good of pricing out...

The arms will fit almost 3/4 of all mercedes made, the stock camber arms have been the same arms which seems like forever, they will fit most chassis (except maybe the newest ones with the more advanced suspensions). Most of the standard spring/shock mercedes can run them no problem. On a side note, fenders may require rolling depending on how aggressively you want to dial out camber so keep that in mind.

Have to clear that blanket statement up Linus! As Jangy said, it would suck to have your frame crash down over clearence issues at 150MPH, with a broken camber arm..

What up Jangy!!! Thanks for the heads up, from what I can gather in your statement, there has to be a provision made for the airmatic suspension that lowers as the car's speed rises...

You basically have to bend around it. Very tricky stuff to duplicate, make adjustable, and make sure it is STRONG. This guy makes things RIGID and that is why I love his work. Being able to adjust camber and toe in the rear will be awesome!! He has a prototype design but we can't share that yet until he has the parts ready for me to try out. Needless to say, it is a cut throat business, regardless of your morale fiber...

Yeah, especially if its your main business!! For me, I treat everything as a technical excercise, for every question an answer.

It is his main business and I am simply along for the ride. I love R&D and learning. Getting to try new stuff is fun, too...
I will post pics as soon as I get the OK.
Is a sponsor here willing to host a GB? Anyone? I'd guess 10 sets of toe links and 10 sets of camber arms?
