Thanks for the video. The thread was nowhere near top mount after compression. Then video cut to threading top nut on. How did you get the compressor grips on the top coil of the spring under tension. How did you get that last few inch? That is the hard part where I am stuck. At least show the entire hard bits.

Is it possible to increase the height of the front of W203 using spacers?
If it is possible, any link to how to do this and the tools/equipments needed?

Why not show the result? 🙁

Brilliant work, what else to say!

Maui Vi says:

Good. Thanks for sharing. But way to much spray. IMO mostly unnecessary.
