These are very DIY friendly cars, and there are many suspension rebuild threads on this forum. The only real way to get good value from these cars is to work on them yourself, or find a competent mechanic (Mercedes-Benz enthusiast) to do the work at a fraction of dealer/Euro auto shop cost.
Rollguy- agreed- I found a good "assembly line" body shop... and yes- I would buy the parts/bushing kits... just wondering- what I am looking at for hours-
roughly- to do all of that - bushings/mounts/ball joints- ALL at the same time to save - Labor $$$$

Lastly- does Thrust arm= lower control arm??? is it same thing??
