[W126 Coupe] Bilstein Shocks

[Stuart Corkran]

I can say that adjustable Konis have been the best shocks on my 126 with eaibach springs. Perfect!

  Why not try Koni for the front.

    Hello Robert,
    Not sure you can get sport shocks for our 126's..  I deal w/ Bilstein/have their catalog and I don't see any listing for sports on a 126, only the 124/201 etc..

    You'll want to check the rear springs on your car, make sure they were swapped out as the SLS springs are not designed to carry the car w/o the assistance of the hyd. system. 

    I've been installing/selling HD's for years and haven't had someone come back displeased yet!
