Mercedes W114 Front Axle Overhaul - Part 1

[@Alex-mf2jy]

Didn`t know Brad Pitt has started a Mercedes restauration shop now. Jokes aside, what you`re doing is top notch, this kind of information is priceless, and it will get lost in time if not documented like you do. Hope you will soon start getting the appreciation your channel truly deserver. All the best!

Thank you for your kind words. Sometimes its really a hassle setting everything up for shooting a video, but then i think when i started information was scarce, practically none available. Its fun passing along knowledge and helping others. Take care and wish you all the best also.

I’m restoring a 74 w114 280E here in Kuala Lumpur. Turning out to be a labour of love but I’m obsessed with getting it correct inspite the best efforts of the body shops and mechanics to screw it up! I’ll follow your restoration and hope to get mine back to concourse.

you will get it the way you want it, just depends how much money you are willing to throw at it:) Good luck with your undertaking

Your videos have helped me lots with my w124 e250d non turbo - it’s hard to find someone with knowledge on this engine - thank you. Could you do a video on the dark art of gearbox setting up with the 722.4 - vacuum and shift setting up etc - keep up the cool videos and chilled tunes 👊🏼

[@heritagesteel1976]

dark art was funny:) its pretty sraightforward actually but painstaking getting the vacuum settings right. Ill try to do a video in the future about it.

I need some info , do I really need to drop the whole rear end to do the rear axles on my w114? I’ll follow your build content

[@heritagesteel1976]

yeah there is no easy way around. You probably want to do a boot job for the cvs right? But it not a headache. Typical mercedes maintenance pretty straightforward
