Mercedes W124 suspension rebuild with strongflex bushing. V8 turbo project

[@bernardwarr4187]

Great job. I use these bushes on my w124, saloon! I used the 90 on the subframe and 80 on the arms. Works great with little road noise

[@JMSpeedshop]

Nice oke . That is also An option to do

Thanks 👍

[@jefferyli433]

How’s the ride quality? Nice project, can’t wait to see it’s done! 👍

[@JMSpeedshop]

Very good

[@Michael0905]

Hey there, great work! I have a question to all who are here. Do somebody know if the suspension parts of the R129 fit to the W124? I am probably interested to swap a V12 to a W124 and it would be lots of easier when I even can use a few parts from a R129 like the axles from a 600SL

[@fhwolthuis]

Nice bushings! But these suspension arms, are they new or refurbished? OEM or aftermarket? They look a bit rough

[@JMSpeedshop]

Oem . Rust removed and new coating

[@disguise418]

Are all suspension components still out of w210 e420/e430 like you mentioned in past video?

[@JMSpeedshop]

Yes only rear wheelhubs brakes and diff will s210

[@bernardwarr4187]

What’s you plan for mounting the turbos?

[@JMSpeedshop]

Not turbo's. A turbo. For now the Idea is on the passenger side of the engine

[@bernardwarr4187]

@@JMSpeedshop I am looking at doing a W210 with an M119 turbo. I am thinking about putting a GT45 turbo where the A/C compressor was. With a m113 I think it’s possible to use the original exhaust manifolds turned upside down and left to right! Then making up a Y pipe

How is the road noise/ ride quality? Regards Oscar

[@JMSpeedshop]

The red type. Is the same stiffness as oem rubber bushing. These are Just last longer. I had never and noise chassis with these. When installing you need to Grease Them like describtion

@@JMSpeedshop Okay super!.. Thanks for info :)

First view 👍👍

I have never heard of a Mercedes S124? A W124 saloon, coupe and estate/Station wagon, yes, a S124 never!

[@JMSpeedshop]

Now you know station OR estate. Is called the S model from mercedes. S124 is combi OR station OR TE

[@TofumanFC3S]

You have heard wrong unfortunately. Technically a “W124 estate/station” doesn’t exist. For two reasons: It’s a S124 and it’s a “kombi” (as in how BMW’s have “tourings”). W124: Limosine S124 : Kombi C124: Coupé A124: Cabrio
