Rear spring/shock change to w211 sedan

[Cosmo]

Hi,

I used the search, but did not find the answer to my question; Correct procedure to change the rear springs/shocks to w211 sedan (E240)?

I'm looking for some tips as it seems that it's not just a "walk in the park", I might be wrong...

Thanks!

You are going to need a Mercedes spring compressor.

Compress the spring.
Unfasten the lower wishbone inner joint and remove the bolt.
Lower the wishbone and remove the spring.
Installation is a reverse.
