I have another question. My front springs on my 76 W200 are 30 years old and have about 210,000 miles on them About 25 years ago the PO had installed overloads from Chrysler. But the springs in the front are almost flat, not overloaded but flat. The rear end has 3/4 ton springs with two overload leafs and a complete set of Jeep springs. The rear end doesn't even sit down with 4,000lbs in the bed.

Does anyone know if a set of 1993 or earlier Cummins Turbo springs would fit?? I know the truck frames are the same but are the spring shackles and axle mounting points the same? As I have a Dana 44 front and the Cummins have Dana 60's??? I'm thinking about tracking a set down out of a junkyard, or buying a new set to stiffen up the front end.
