I figured I would just make my own relay to switch between the two horns I also grabbed the fanfair horn switch for the dash so I figured I'd use that to activate the relay any thoughts?

Thats not my video. The switch for it is just a simple SPDT on-on type that sends power to either horn type from the same circuit.

FI if the fanfare horns are still there the next time you go I'd probably be interested if you don't mind. How much ($$) do you think you'd need for them (+s/h)?
BTW any ideas on where to find a 600 series horn?? Sounds like a darned ocean going liner or tugboat. Pretty awesome.

Now the cruise works but it surges acceleration and deceleration back and forth by like 10mph yikes
And the door locks work! well sort of now they will all unlock just fine!
But only the front doors and the trunk lock the back doors try but wont go down all the way they must have a leak? also the gas door lock is broken!
The line on the pump its self was a little loose so I will start by replacing the rubber connector line!
and score I got a nearly perfect dash with no cracks! It was a lot easier than I thought it only took me about 20min to get it out!

Due to their tank-like nature, I'd think depleted uranium would be used instead of lead. :p

what if we made a list of parts we are looking for in the junkyards. i usually am able to make it out to the ones near me every week or two, but i have to pick one to go to, so i often don't hit the same one up more than every month or two - i probably miss a lot of stuff. we would all keep tabs on the list, and if we find something in the junkyard, buy and pull it for the person who needs it and they pay the picker back + shipping / etc. i think that even just amongst the few of us in socal, we could really expand our abilities to hunt down junkyard parts. i for one would have no problem grabbing odds and ends for the core group of people on here. obviously we would have to limit it to members who we all know and can vouch for so nobody gets stuck with a $75 IP they dont need.
example: i need a proper 240D throttle linkage setup. it's $8 from ecology, but i can't find any so far.

The yard price list says 27 each with core charge.

I can be wrong, don't take everything I say as verbatim, please fact-check first.

82 300SD aka The Flyin Pumpkin (Gone): 7.5mm super M-pump, T3 60 trim turbo, Coldish air intake, A/W intercooler, propane injection, SW Boost and EGT gauges, Monark 265 nozzles, ported/polished cylinder head.
84 Euro 300D 4 sp: White with black trunk and hood. Blue cloth interior. Manual everything. 300DT front swaybar. C320 17" wheels. Now with the Flyin Pumpkins engine!
If it is a 6.9 then it should be a LSD unit also! I've had my 2.65 from the same car in my 82 300SD. I've also test fit it into my 77 240D. It fits in both cars, but you will have to swap the input flange for the smaller one on your stock diff. You may have to flip the rear diff mount 180 degrees to make it fit correct, but other than that it should fit right in!

06-27-2011, 11:49 AM #86Just open it up. If it has clutches, it's an LSD and most likely came from a 6.9.

No LSD unless it's really worn. But the car didn't have hydraulic suspension so it wasn't a 6.9.

It should have the gear ratio stamped on the lower left corner of the diff, next to the rear diff cover. If it is an LSD unit, it should have a metal tag on one of the output flange bolts also. I have no idea if the clutches are any good in mine or not, I don't have enough power to test that yet! LOL

An hour later, I am in possession of a smooth rotating 717.400, driveshaft, shifter and pedal assembly.
Not sure what I am going to do with it. For now it's going into storage with all my other Mercedes crap to collect dust.

Exactly! I was just sad laying under that thing. Amazingly straight and rust free car. Only issue was the the left part of the Euro three piece bumper was crumpled and a cracked dash. The interior was not faded or worn at all, apart from a rip in the driver's side seat. I was temped to pull the motor which had a great Sanden compressor A/C setup. But probably in another day.

Im telling you, deliveryvalve owns pick & pull or ecology. Its his company, thats the only way he keeps finding crazy shit in the yards. When he says "I was walking with a buddy", he means that he authorized a national search in his chain of yards for that specific part.

My words exactly, when I learned you got that wagon front sway bar pulled for you...
Pulled a 120-amp W123 alternator the other day.
Also pulled an MW-pump. Under thirty bucks. Including the lines. The injectors too. However, I must say, whoever put that lower front attachment bolt on, must be the same Teufel as designed how the cruise control amp is fastened-on...
DeliveryValve's buddy's other walks are, of course, on water...

It's slightly different that the damaged one on my euro wagon the chrome wraps further around the side of the car I should have grabbed the rubber fillers but I didn't have the time or tools so I will modify the ones I have to fit it!

11-14-2011, 01:12 AM #100Found some of the Early (low spec) euro lights! When I was looking for some Jeeps parts on Saturday.. The 240 also had the Aluminum wheels, but I didn't grab those. They're in pretty good shape, need a little polish job, some seals and they will be good to go.
