RE: [diesel_mercedes] 1980 300TD hydralic suspension(AKA pogo stick)

 

Here is a google search that has some reading on the Mercedes hydraulic suspension:

Also, there was one show on Wheeler Dealers (England) where they took the hydraulics out and replaced them with conventional shocks.

I have a 1980 300TD wagon with the hydraulic suspension.

Does anyone have a test procedure to get it working again.

The car rides like a pogo stick.  Back end just bounces up and down on bumps.

 

Alternately has anyone modified theirs to an air system like people do with trucks when they add a camper.

 

Thanks

 

Mark
