  • In this video I fix the brakes on my Mercedes-Benz 180 W120 Ponton. More or less a complete brake job including new pipes, hoses, cylinders, honing of cylinders, master cylinder, wheel bearings.
    Bleeding procedure will come in a separate video.
    This video has some older material mixed with new, so some scenes have a little poor quality. I apologise for that and hope you enjoy it anyway.

    My favorite kind of how-to "movie". Loved it when you flipped the switch on the boom box. Regrettably, vast majority of YT DIY video producers think we need to see their face (often way too much of) and listen to them drone on and on with unnecessary verbiage accompanied by annoying music. 19:04 Your bench grinder sounds like a two stroke engine!

    You didn’t treat the inner brake dust covers! They get hammered by the weather. Clean, spray with rust converter (to make sure any rust remaining is ‘dealt with’, paint, _then_ rebuild the hub. You lose points for that, Penyz! 😠
    (I can say this coz I’ve just replaced (what was left of) my dust covers on my ‘74 280E. 😉)

      You can always find ways to do things differently or more thorough. I'm not here to gain points. Just working on my cars and enjoying them 😁👍. Congrats to a -74 280 E! I also have one, but a -73 👌

    For the 280E, M-B specify the _amount_ (by weight) of grease that should be in the hub. Do they do that for the Ponton?

      That's hard to say Andrea. I guess it's a matter of opinion. I prefer petrol engines myself and I think there are more models to choose from if you go for the petrol ones. 👌 Greetings //Peter
