Below is a pic of my rear sway bar and the rear suspension links. Since this photo I have also replaced the toe arm.

If you look at the sway bar just after the mounts you can notice that the end is splined. I took a splined coller and welded the stock sway bar arm to it so that the coller would slide onto the splined sway bar. By using different sized splined sway bars I can change the roll stiffness at the rear of the car.

Dang, that's some nice looking gear right there in the back! So have you been able to calibrate it to different settings yet? How does it fell?

I have bent my knuckel in the rear by 1 degree accoring to my mechanic, how hard is it for me to replace this part, I have done some on my other cars mainly 1960's Cutlass convertable show car it held in with 4 bolt on the front, as the rear is a solid axel so it dosent have any, unlike the the benz

thanks

speedybenz: The Penske shocks ur running.. r they made for c-classes or did u madify them to fit?? I need new shocks.. I'd like something with adjustable dampening. what do u recommend?
and how hard was it to get out the stock old sway bar??.. did u have to drop the rear sub frame a bit for clearance?.. I have an Eibach sway bar kit.. but still have not installed the rear bas as I didnt have enough time ot install it when I did the front one.. and the rear subframe bolts didnt move at all.. the fronts did move tho, luckily!!
