And has not given me much trouble except for countless window regulators and door lock actuators. I had the bumpiness issue you described, and I was hiding it by replacing the steering damper more and more frequently. Last week I decided to put in brand new tie-rod and drag link (or whatever MB calls those), and now it drives like a new car. It is worth checking those. | ||

Do you have the part# for drag link? There are a couple of parts that are called drag link and I'm not sure which one you've replaced. | ||
