I looked at lot of things to improve the ride on my W250 - including airbags and sulastic shackles.

When I found out I also had broken leafs, and rusted-thru hangers, I cut out everything and mounted 2ndgen hangers and leafs (came free with the Dana 80 I sourced.) Its like I drive a different truck now.

Nice,

Take some pictures. Was it easy to adapt? Maybe I need Gen 2 springs + Surlastic shackles =0)

I didn't think it was really any harder than replacing stock stuff. Had to measure and mockup a little more. I It rides so well, I don't need fancy shackles.
