Thanks for the info dave. As you can see in this photo, the differential mounts ripped and the diff fell off the subframe
The center peice ripped right out!
Some might think im nuts but i just put a screwdriver against the old bushing and hit it with a hammer to pop them out. Thankfully it didnt damage the subframe.
I got the new bushings in using a harmonic balancer (my dad said its a steering wheel puller?) since i dont have a press. Worked fine, but the top diff bolt broke so im going to have to pull out the entire subframe to fix it
The differntial is now bolted back up using those 2 mounts but the differential falling like that messed up the flex discs and now they make the drive-shaft shake like crazy. So ive orderd new flex discs..
As for the AMG springs and shocks, a member by the name of boardmonger found a local source of AMG parts and found me this W124 AMG kit.
And it was only $400 for the entire kit which included the front and rear springs, front and rear shocks/struts, and all the bolts along with a strange looking computer chip thingy.
The front struts are interesting, they are adjustable kinda like koni shocks. Turn them clock-wise to stiffen and counter-clock wise to soften. They have a bilstein part number on sticker and AMG part number engraved in the strut and shock which is a little weird.
Once my mom gets back from vacation ill have my good camera back, until then i only have this low quality pic from a $30 digital camera
