I see lots of european 190's with tow hooks. Over here in the U.S. we buy big SUVs and trucks for that.

Wow your car was optioned with an SLS system? I don't think I've ever seen that on a non-twincam 190.

That is because you live in a very small Mercedes Market



Slightly tuned 84 190E 2.3 8v 5spd, Sebring/AMG header, custom exhaust, DTM can
Flex-a-lite Electric Fan instead of Clutch Fan, 230 BHP M102.961 AMG
BBS body kit, AMG duktail , Hella lights around.
E320 brakes, Troutman drilled rotors, C230 EVO 17" Rims (225/45/17), Billie Sports (plus some of MRP's toys) and Sachs Performance Springs
Sony MD with Rockford HPC 2204 4" in frt, Sony Xplod 4 way 6X9" in rear
newly added to the stable 83 Weiß 2.3, 85 Astral 500SEL

cheaper to just shoe horn in a MB V6 or V8 instead of a Mosselman Turbo kit to create the ultimate Rice Eater out of a Kraut Can

were the fk springs specifically for cars with sls? non-sls springs will be way too stiff and result in your car sitting high...

why can't you just adjust the "switch" on the swaybar?
