need Tech to weigh in here ...
what: I purchased a set of H&R sport springs (product code 29559).
Question: can i reliably use these springs for my vehicle that weighs 145 kg (318 lbs) more than what they're advertised / built for?
Yes? No? Issues?
... background: these springs made by H&R for the W126 Benz series (1981-1991) ... the W126 Ben is the next generation to my vehicle, the W116 (in my case, a 1979 300SD Turbo Diesel).
... even more fine print:
... ... the W126 V8 long wheel base Benz weighs in at 1,670 kg (3,682 lb).
... ... ... my W116 turbo diesel benz weighs in at 1,815 kg (4,000 lb)
yes, i've contacted the spring manufacturer.
