you could use R129 lower arms as they have a different shape around the balljoint:

Great project........

Yes, im aware of that. been thinking about buying the W129 ones, but its extra ~300€ altho i have good use for the current ones anyway so maybe after xmas

Cheers.

You can find those from Ebay aswell.(i found set year back.) i was thinking of that as well but on my eyes it wasnt that nice, too big etc. so i got hold of these custom ones. that i posted on last page.

For testing.. similar topmounts have been used on one rally W201 in finland.. that have raced like in 35 rallies.

anyway ive heard good things about those(or similar you linked) topmounts as well from finnish mercedes forums.

The entire build is top-shelf, like the Johnny Walker black label Scotch.

I'm working on my own W201 turbodiesel project - trying to clean up the underhood layout.

Can you share the source for your overflow tank & windshield washer reservoir? Those pieces look just right!

I actually got both from ebay, the overflow tank is from VW, so similar is not hard to find just search for VW coolant tank or something like that. The washer tank also from ebay just try searching cant remember the what exact words i used to find that.
