    I pull a trailer behind my ML400 I am already 1´´ lower in the back then the front with the empty car. Time to replace the rear suspension, but not an easy task. I am looking for something which can hold much more weight, had a look at adjustable ones with pneumatics, but lots of people say they are not very reliable, lots of problems, on top of that I will load more then usual. There are several kits with pneumatic adjustment, but none works for Mercedes ML´s. If some of you figured something let me know.

    I am using these on 2 of my cars. But after 5 to max 7 years the wires tend to weather , Is this a common issue on Hella wiring harness?

    • @offgridnomads377
      @offgridnomads377 2 роки тому

      Thank you for the inquiry. I have used Hella wiring harness on my 1998 4runner since the 4000 came out. The 3rd gen 4runner traveled across the globe including the deserts in Saudi Arabia and the UAE. Reason for this is I am guessing it could be heat related, but I did not face that problem and the wires are still good. However, I have heard that in some mid 2000 BMW models with Hella OEM wiring harness had issues with Hella on their cars due to heat.

  • @cyronader
    @cyronader 2 роки тому

    Did you compress the coils yourself or had a shop do it? I just got a pair of rear B6s and I need to swap the coils from the original struts. I was told that these coils are very difficult and dangerous to compress with the standard hand crank compressors. Also I noticed that the B6s have what looks like 1/16 inch thick ring where the bottom spring plate sits on. Does that thin ring really support all that coil force? Seems crazy to me as the original struts has the bottom spring plate welded to the strut assembly. Can you confirm this?

    • @offgridnomads377
      @offgridnomads377 2 роки тому

      For safety I used a shop spring compressor, not the $35 DIY units. They are not difficult to compress but you need the right tool. The ring is fine. It'll stay in place. In the event that something happens, the plate will go down a couple inches to the bottom of the shock where there are weld marks that will hold it in place.

    In the begining of ML production the 4-ETS becomes only abs when you touch the brakes and I told the instructors this was the worst thing they could have done,That and not using the neutral position in the transfer case so it could be flat towed. I explained drivers want the control on the trail that dragging the brakes can afford. So later trucks had the traction control software improved to allow throttle and brake to be modulated together up to a higher vehichle speed . I worked on and have driven the ML since the introduction.

      Ride is excellent. We have no vibrations and my expedition buddies using mostly Jeeps are always envious of how comfortable the ride is whenver they use this car. The axle shafts are fine because they are not at steep angles. Two years of hard use and still zero problems. That's a testament to how strong the car is actually.

    Can you explain the difference between the Bilsteins 3 painted square and the 4 painted squares? I did my 2003 ML350 2 years ago using Bilstein 3 painted squares and it seems fine. Not easy getting the shocks disconnected on top on a rusty NY vehicle. After doing brake lines,fuel lines and 4 shocks 2 years ago it hasn't cost a dime. Pretty good for a 173,000 mile outside kept NY winter driven vehicle. I am 64 years old this vehicle has been my best vehicle so far and fixing it myself without a lift is possible for most things. The things I had to replace were not too difficult. A not too expensive scanner will point you in the right direction for most things. Stable at 100mph and better off road than given credit for,and fixable when it does break is what makes it a good machine. Nice informative video.

      The 4 square springs are just a tad stronger than the 3 square springs. I've noticed the ride height has settled a bit since doing this project so the search is for an even stronger spring without killing the comfort.
