The air bags of the 300 SEL series are unique to the series.
The 300SE I6 3.0 engined, the 300SEL V8 4.5, and the 300SEL V8 6.3 all have the same bags. The front shocks are different between each model as the weight on the front is different due to the different engines.
The advice not to try and change out the bags to some other method of "spring" is excellent advice.

The air bags on your 300 SEL are for the suspension system. If you are inquiring to change the system, don't change it. A search of replacement parts would be the smart move. once you "change" its originallity , what will you want to change next? Keep it like it is, one of a kind! Good luck!

72 300 SEL...with Air-Bags? I thought it was not until 1978 MBZ introduced Air-Bags?

It's been some time since I have seen those but I do not think you can use anything other than the stock ones.Try allgermanparts.com they have them $224 front $209 rear. That's a great car! Great looking nice ride plenty of power keep it as stock as possible to keep the value.
