82 300D problem installing rear axels ??

Old axel had enough play to remove. Can't get new axel compressed enough to get into wheel hub (can type). Several Internet articles just said to jack up differential housing. This still does not give enough room. Looks like no way to remove hub without removing lower control arm. Any ideas or tricks to this?

Thanks,

'85 300D heat driver's side cold passenger

Hot air is coming out of the appropriate places on drivers side, but ambient temp air from the passenger side. Buttons on dash change air routing but still temps remain as above. I have the automatic climate control. Both hoses of the monovalve are hot. Any suggestions. Days of internet searching have come up empty. 1985 300 D eurodelivery model 280,000 mi.

Thanks,

W123 83 300cd Leaking Trunk Lid

I am collecting water in the perforated area on the trunk lid. After a rain, when I open the trunk lid, water start pulling out from the holes in the under portion of the trunk lid, the trunk gasket is fixing good, I cannot figure out where the water is coming from and how it is getting in the perforated area. As soon as i open the trunk lid the water that was collected in the perforated portion of the trunk lid, start pouring into the trunk. I am open to any suggestions, there is no water in trunk well areas.
