- I finally found a sway bar and install it to the CL55 AMG. It fit perfectly. In this video you will see what needs to go to make room for the sway bar. also how easy it is to do this conversion as well as how cheap it can be.

The 55 sounds so much better than my 600! As always, appreciate the video!
i’ve been looking for a video about this for so long because i’m deleting the abc from my cl55 too. thank u!!!
Bro you a real one💯💯 j bought mine, 2004 w 84k miles 🙌🏻
Dude thanks for makin these videos fr! Liked and subscribed
Thanks for doing a video on this. Good job.
Looking good bro!!! Thanks for sharing!
Nm BMAN, I've found the lower control arms on Ebay for $220. Hopping is the right one. Thanks again.
Bought a bright silver one in great condition in 2013 for $16.5k w/91k miles. Still own it and now at 110k miles it's still a supercar 😃 . Good to know about that Sway Bar from W220. I will do this if/when my ABC goes. Thanks for doing these videos. Subscribed.
Always love to hear from other CL owners. Much appreciated !
love the channel
Awesome video! Do you know if the coilover + sway bar conversion would work for a CL65 as well?
Can go please give an update drive on this car explaining any new update since this video. Also aby impressions on the conversion since you have done it.
Did you have to chane to flat top mounts for the coil overs to fit the lower arm? Or was there enough movement to get it to fit the ball joint?
How did you manage to tighten the sway bar link on the top where it connects to the sway bar? There seems to be no space between the strut and the bolt inside the link
Just now installing my coilovers do you still suggest getting the sway bar and where should I buy it
What about your power steering pump? Where did you get it from and can I have the part numbers.
Hi Brian... I have been thinking of doing same to my CL55 Komp, Yr04. Please let me know what you did on the rear...did you put the sway bar off the S500 and did you remove all the hydraulic lines that runs under the car from front to rear? Let me know and I heard that the yellows are better than the toastmasters ones as they are adjustables... Was thinking of selling it but there is only 1 CL55 in my country so I am thinking of keeping it since I love the M113K engines...awaiting an update on same. Thx Derek
will this convention work on a 2002 cl500 with yellow speed?
I have the same thing on my W220 although I get a horrible clunking noise. The car doesn't vibrate or anything, even at speed, so idk what to do.
BMAN enjoy your videos can you tell me the model of the car the control arm came from?
Thinking about doing the same with my 02 ,how much was the total cost of everything, out the door price?
Wish it was this easy on the SL. When I did my VVK bars I had to drop both the rear and front subframes. Was well worth it though as the car actually handles better than a wet noodle now. A 4K # vehicle with no sways is a horrible ride for anything except putting around like your grandma ;)
I NEED THE CONTROL ARMS..WHAT WEBSITE AND WHAT MODEL OF MERCEDES WILL FIT ON STANDARD 2006 MERCEDES CL500..I DID THE STRUTMASTERS..PLEASE HELP..
I was waiting for this video , thank you. Is it necessary to do it also for the rear ? Is there any room for it? How is the ride quality after installing the front one? Thank you for answering me but I have to do the same thing
I need help as well. I bought a car with ABC delete but no swaybars.
Thanks BMAN, I'm about to do the same on my CL500. But, needed more information on parts. Like the arm and where I can get one.
Fcpeuro.com or autohausaz.com
What about the rear sway bar
Whar about rear sway bar?
When I order the lowercontrol arms do I order for a w220 chassis? I heard you say where the sway bar came off of but wasn't sure about the lower control arms.
Yes! Make sure to get the arms for a w220 mercedes (2003-2006) also make sure to check that they have the end link attachment bolt sticking out.
Nice! Currently I'm on yellow speeds only. I thought car would lose control easily but honestly I don't think you need sway bars unless you're racing it. Even on some twisties car felt good. Still I will be doing this since I already have all the parts. Hopefully control arm will come off easy next time with some lube. 👍
Nice. Since I'm going to be adding more horsepower to this later, I thought it would be good to take care of these things now. But glad to hear your happy with the yellow speeds!
Are those yellow speeds adjustable?
@@interstateboss5921 yes they are. They are worth every penny. Great product.
@@bmancars3237 Thank you. Keep up the great work on these videos. They are very much needed. Not many videos on these.
I've just converted my CL 600 to yellow speed Coilovers. What are your settings for dampening front and rear? Great video. Thanks for all the good info.
Where did you get the clear Signal lights on the bumper? I did the conversion on my 2001 CL500 using Strutmasters, but i think I'll switch them to Yellow Speed, So I can adjust them.
Ebay. I have a video on them. Check it out i believe i have the info for them on that video
Now you need to do the rear. Its harder but it'll balance the stiffness out. Drop the subframe a little and the exhaust. Get rid of all the abc lines. Wish I was there so I can walk you through it. Good job though and cars looking real good.
@@300zVinh thanks. Thats next on my list. And yes it is harder and more time consuming but just like all the rest of the things I researched and did, this will happen too. I really appreciate it though.
Hey bro did the sway bars make a big difference ? I purchased the regular rearward control arms but I am deciding if I should return them for the w220 rearward control arms so I can install the sway bar
It feels alot more stable and not so wavy i guess. Can't wait to do the rear as well.
About the arm...your going to need the w220 ones definitely for the sway bar.
Hey mate, do u think i can put a sway bar on a w220 with factory airmatic system? Is it possible?
A W220 with Airmatic suspension will have sway bar as OEM equipment, always!
That is the source for the bar used in this video, for conversion from hydraulic suspension.
I love airmatic features, but cornering is superior with the alternative and more costly hydraulic system. I under the desire to reduce expensive points of failure, but it is a shame to convert such an effective design IMHO. Enjoy your ride regardless of your choices :)
What is the tool used for removing the ball joint?
Its a cheap $15 ball joint removing tool. You can buy it cheap or rent it for free from any parts store near you.
Did you put a sway bar in the rear? What size bolts you had to get for the front sway bars?
Not yet. Since its a bigger job to install, I want to make sure I do it right and know exactly what to get. And which bolts were you talking about? The brackets for the sway bolts?
@@bmancars3237 yes those
@@craigfinger5356 those bolts were already on there because a couple of abc hoses run across and those held them. I don't know the exact size, but they are Allen top bolts.
@@bmancars3237 thanks
Where did you get sway bar?
Local junkyard. Any s500 2001-2006 models fits directly on the cl models.
@@bmancars3237 all cl models? I have a cl500 from 2002. I watched all your videos on this car. Would it be the same for me or similar? Anyway thanks for the vids man theyre very helpful. By the way you should link the parts that you buy online in your descriptions. Would be very helpful.
@@michaeldouse8971 did you do the conversion and did the parts work ok or did you have to change anything?
@@proman378 nah I never did it. I sold the cl500
