w123 new front and rear spring source? - xl.617.lx - 03-31-2015
Hi guys,
Im looking for new springs for my w123, but all I've found is stuff one eBay and you never really know what your getting when dealing with the random yahoos on eBay. What brand are the stock 123 springs, are they made buy Mercedes?
Any info or feedback would be greatly appreciate, thanks everyone!

Go with Erik. Look on the endorsement thread section. I got mine from him. They were normally used on the SLS delete kit, but I chopped off some and they are perfect. Improves the ride 100%.

Hey Greazzer,
I just looked at Erik's sight and it looks like he only offers rear springs. Any idea where I could get a set of front spings that are stiffer to compliment the upgraded rear springs Erik offers?
Thanks again!

Did you consider these?

They're from a random yahoo across the country but cheap and comes with a hard-2-find skid plate.

I think he sells both, but I would PM him to verify. I know he initially only sold them for wagons for the SLS delete application. I tried them by cutting some off, and Erik was incedibly kind and sent me another R&D set which were cut perfectly for Sedan applications in my instance (I did not want to drop the ride height at all). I think his email or company is called "ProPig .." something. It's an odd name, but he's on the forum.

I'm going to email him and find out about getting a set of four. Thanks again Greazzer!
