Default 124 vs 210 vs 126 suspension specs.

Hi all,

I recently put a new H&R spring kit into my 124 wagon. I did it mostly to rid myself of the hydro-pneumatic suspension system, so I changed the rear control arms and steering pump, got gas shocks, and used the spring kit specified for the 124 sedan.

Now I have a new problem. The rear end of the wagon is significantly heavier than that of the sedan. Now, I did expect this, but it's more of an issue than I hoped for. It looks fantastic, but I can't put much weight over the rear axle or it drops out too low for comfort.

Does anyone have weight specs for the rear axle weight of the S124, W210, and W126? I'm thinking if I can find a closer weight match I can get different springs to solve the problem, but all I can find are full vehicle curb weights, no front/rear axle differentiations.

Thanks for any help,
Alex
