Eibach Pro Kit part numbers

[DRM]

Hey,

I have found some eibach pro kit springs for a good price but the part number is 2532.140 and "2532001 VA & 2532002 HA".

I have read that 2532.140 is for W202 up to 1995 and there are different springs for 1995 + W202's. I was wondering will these fit a 1997 update?

What is different in the suspension from the pre update and update?

94-12/95 springs are cut flat on the top and the pad goes on that
01/96-00 springs are cut angled during mid coil at the top and the pad compensates to make the springs seat flat.

for instance, is you have a 202 before 96 and want newer style springs. it is possible you just need to buy the newer 210 part number springs pads rather than the earlier 201 part number springs pads and vice versa!

This is the 2532.140 Eibach Pro Kit. (2532001 VA & 2532002 HA).

So from what J Irwan said:

For W202 mid 96-99
Front(W210 part number) :
210 321 01 84 pad#1 5 mm
210 321 02 84 pad#2 9 mm
210 321 03 84 pad#3 13 mm
210 321 04 84 pad#4 17 mm
210 321 05 84 pad#5 21 mm

Rear(W210 part number) :
210 325 01 84 pad#1 5 mm
210 325 02 84 pad#2 9 mm
210 325 03 84 pad#3 13 mm
210 325 04 84 pad#4 17 mm

For W202 94-mid 96
Front(W201 part number) :
201 321 09 84 pad#1 8 mm
201 321 10 84 pad#2 13 mm
201 321 11 84 pad#3 18 mm
210 321 12 84 pad#4 23 mm

Rear(W201 part number) :
201 325 09 44 pad#1 8 mm
201 325 10 44 pad#2 13 mm
201 325 11 44 pad#3 18 mm


The different between W201 and W210 part number is because of the different shape of the spring.

The W201 spring pad has flat surface where W210 spring pad as a grove where the spring will sit.

On the earlier W202 cars the edges of the spring is tappered, that's why they use W201's spring pad which has flat surface..


Hope this helps.

Considering I have the update model w202 I need to get the W201 part number pads with the flat surface to seat fit these flat topped springs.

So i'll go:

For W202 94-mid 96
Front(W201 part number) :
201 321 09 84 pad#1 8 mm

Rear(W201 part number) :
201 325 09 44 pad#1 8 mm

Any confirmation on this? just need these installed asap don't want to be waiting on pads!

Thanks!

I have #2 pads in the rear one my 96 C220. Its a lot lower than the front. I need to find time to change my front #3's down to one's to try and even it out. Have the pads just no time yet. Hopefully ones all around wont be too low in the rear.
