300sd engine swap...parts replacement recommendations?
I am changing the engine in my 82 300sd (due to low compression on one of
the cylinders/poor starting in ontario winters). I want to be sure I do
everything that should be done while the engine is out of the car.
I have ordered the front main seal and a bunch of other stuff.........but
I see no mention or guides available for the rear main seal. I'm not sure
if the engine being transplanted should have a new rear main seal, or if it is an easy job....... or not.
Anyone with any experience or info on this?

123 Rear door check strap
Yesterday, suddenly, the rear left door of my 1984 300D would open only half way. (Bad) Today, I see a beautiful door check strap for the 123 is on sale! (Good) But it's only for front doors. (Not so good) Do you stock a door check strap for rear doors? Thanks. Jim Norman

1977 300D coolant leak
Last year my parents bought me a 1977 240d with a 300d engine. I love the car because of its old style and drove it for about 4 months before pools of coolant started to appear under my car. I am wanting to fix my car now that my dad recently passed away and i need to know if anyone could help me by finding out what the cause is. I have had people tell me its a freeze plug behind the engine. All can tell is that its leaking between the engine and transmission. if anyone could answer this for me i would appreciate it and i would know that i must purchase a freeze plug.

Diesel injector differences-turbo vs. non turbo
I have a set of injectors that came off a 300 turbo diesel and I was wondering if they would work in a non turbo engine?
Just wondering what the difference would be in the two.
Thank you

84 300SD OIL HOSES/LINES
Are the couple of hoses at drivers side of what I think is an oil cooler are those the oil lines? These hoses are like a hydraulic line, alterante between rubber and preformed special metal fittings and shaped metal lines. They appear to be a pre determined length and appear to go back near the trans. If so are they easily replaced? Cost and availability of the lines and do you have a how to guide? I recently used your ignition switch guide and replacement parts. Thank you it was quite helpful. One other question is the oil pan and gasket available through you?
