The 300TE W124's came with rear sway bar end links made from metal and not plastic like the other W124's and W201's.  The metal end links also don't have a balled socket type end (drivers side) either.  In effect, the metal end links allow the rear bar to load quicker.  Not a must for everyday driving of course, but if you auto-x or road race, then this is a worth wile upgrade.  MB no longer makes the metal end links, they have been superceded by plastic end links, so its off to the wrecking yard.  Luckily for me, Pat at PGA is my friend.





This is the drivers side rear plastic end link, you can see the ball pivot on the end.  A simple upgrade really, some metric open end wrench's/sockets, floor jack, jack stands and a lug nut wrench.





 You really need to remove the wheel to get at the nut connected to the sway bar, just makes life much easier.





Wish I could say these were a direct swap but they are not.  The bolts/bushings for the 300TE are longer/wider than the W201's, so you need to use a press to remove the hollow metal shaft and then you can shaft a little off the rubber bushings so that they are the same width as the 300TE's.





I don't really have a press, so my bench vice and a couple of sockets were used to press out the metal shaft from the W201's end links.  Installation of the shaft into the 300TE rear end links was the same.





I used a razor to trim the rubber bushings to the same width as the W201's bushings.  Remember you have to re-use your W201's bolt also as the 300TE bolt is too long.





The finished product.  While not track proven just yet, spirited driving has indicted that the tendency for oversteer has been greatly reduced, promoting a more neutral handling.
