very difficult to do and very very messy, the nuts and bolts are very hard to access and you will need MB computer to properly flush and operate the suspension to remove air and possible dirt from the system, you also will need MB computer to see the system pressure when filling the tandem pump. it is not a job that you can do at home or even an independant for that matter. you will also need about 10 quarts of MB hydraulic fluid to replenish and purge the tandem pump then you will need to set the ride height with the MB computer. Take it to a dealer.
