i like how you let us know maybe don't try this ourselves without lots of upper body strength, then 5 seconds later we see you stepping on the wrench lol :D if i do this job, i am definitely using my legs!
Great to hear! I will have a bunch more videos coming up on the car too, I’m trying to go through and get everything up to par because I have some long trips planned in it.
Yup! A healthy little 302 I put together years ago and I have a built AOD behind it and a differential from an '08 Chrysler 300. The original M103 was completely worn out and slipping transmission, so this was the solution.

I've just got a '91 300E and I have to change the struts, your video was very helpful. Thank you.
@@LeylandFiveTen Glad to hear. Enjoy your new car.
This is awesome Matt! Very thorough and will help me a lot.
That's great to hear, I really appreciate feedback.

Yes, definitely look after your body. I actually have back problems myself.
Awesome, greetings from a cold, miserable, rainy Auckland.
Thanks! It’s about the same here in Canada today.🇨🇦
Thank you SO much for this video! It enabled me to change out the struts in my newly acquired 1993 300E with no problems. Much appreciated!
Great to hear! Thank you for the feedback.
Great video, man! Thanks for showing some of the struggling. It really helps understand what you are doing. Your tips and details were great!
Thanks, I appreciate the feedback.
Really good video. Just posted this on a R129 group as it has the same setup.
Thank you. I really appreciate that.
Awesome!. Love your videos Matt. Happy you held onto this classic, looking forward to seeing it again.
Great to hear! I will have a bunch more videos coming up on the car too, I’m trying to go through and get everything up to par because I have some long trips planned in it.
Great video you make it look easy many thanks from UK
Thank you so much, that’s nice to hear.
Great job. Thanks!
thanks for the video, now how do we change the rear shocks?
Mine had freshly been replaced when I got the car so as soon as I get a opportunity to replace a pair I will do a video.
@@CarswithNash ok great
Wtf ??? Nobody noticed the american v8 in that engine bay??? That car is such an sleeper my friend👌
Thanks! I love this car, just did a road trip in it yesterday.👌😎
It's realy not the original merc engine probably had more power that that thing
Turn the wheel out
Oh you mean for better access to those lower bolts? Yeah that makes sense, sometimes I’m a little thick lol!
Um, is that a Ford engine in a Mercedes?
Yup! A healthy little 302 I put together years ago and I have a built AOD behind it and a differential from an '08 Chrysler 300. The original M103 was completely worn out and slipping transmission, so this was the solution.
Why has this w124 got a shitty ford engine in it how insulting putting crap like that 8n a mercedes
Yes, having twice the power and a transmission that actually performs is really annoying.
Your putting KYB struts on! I’m no longer watching this vid…that’s pure garbage struts
Don't know what to tell you, but the car rides amazing with them.
