    2013 G63 AMG ORC springs and King Shocks install

    2013 G63 AMG ORC springs and King Shocks install

    Thank you. I'm really happy with it. My wife thought I had lost my mind when she saw me cutting the side pipes away at the beginning. But she really likes the new look and more comfortable ride as well. We went over some rocks on a trail recently and for the first time I wasn't sweating...

    Hello all, I'm a long time lurker, but this is my first post. I'm posting mainly to describe some of the good and the bad with my latest project. Hopefully I am able to save someone else some of the pain I encountered. I have a 2013 Mercedes G63 AMG (and a 1981 Mercedes Unimog 1300L). I...
