COVERS ALL ENGINE PARTS WITH MERCEDES PARTS NUMBERS. GOOD USED CLEAN ORIGINAL CONDITION
I have used a LOT of different kinds of grease in my lifetime - but this is my favorite. It has a high molybdenum and grahite content and does not dry out over time. It also has a great resistance to water and moisture deterioration. Just the right consistency - not too thick so it can get into tight places - not too thin so it stays in place.
On the body I use it in door check straps, window gears and mechanisms, seat tracks, door latch assemblies, sunroof cables and gears, hood and trunk hinges and any other metal to metal wear location. On suspension and chassis I use it on wheel bearings, ball joints, tie rods, u-joints, backing plates and more.
This 14 oz can is usually more than enough to service most Mercedes Benz. A must have in your tool box!

General Technical data
This rare dealer manual covers every part on a 230SL convertible. How would you like to have that reference handy. Covers engine, trans, suspension, body and trim.
Before we had computers the dealers had to use these heavy books to order parts. If you own a 113 250SL or 280SL this is a fabulous addition to your collector car. You may never see one of these again is this clean condition.
FITS THE FOLLOWING: all 107, 108, 109, 111, 113, 114, 115, 116, 123 and 126 chassis from 1969 to 1991. Four pads included for both sides of rear axle. Tired of sqweeking or squealing or hard brake pedal feel? These are just amazing brake pads. Manufactured by Meyle in Germany these have high quality anti-squeal plates built into the back side of each pad and are scorched at the factory for more driving comfort. What does scorched mean? Let me explain:
There is nothing more exciting than finding old treasure and for us that can mean vintage Mercedes parts and literature. We just recently made the discovery of some large boxes of factory service manuals, factory parts manuals, and original owners handbooks. There were buried away in an old Mercedes dealership who no longer needed them. After some tough negotiation we loaded all six big boxes (which we could hardly lift) in the back of Kaias wagon and drove them back to the warehouse. We did not know for sure what was in all the boxes so that made it doubly exciting. After going through all the boxes we have indeed discovered some rare treasures.
This is a must have for any owner of an older Mercedes gas engine model. This applies to all 4, 6 and 8 cylinder from the mid 1950s to the mid 1980s. The manual covers prevention of thread damage and how to repair a totally destroyed spark plug hole. The thread chaser included with the manual with help clean up any minor damage and prevent major problems. Never force a spark plug into the threads and if a plug comes out hard the threads MUST be cleaned with a chaser before you reinstall a new plug.
These are the zip ties we have all been looking for. They have a super sticky tape of the foot of the tie so you can stick them anywhere in your engine compartment without having to drill a hole in the inner fender panel. (NOTE: Be sure to thoroughly clean the surface BEFORE installing). The other neat thing is that these zip ties can be loosened back up (just like the factory type) to remove the wire bundle or anything else you need to secure. Sold in packs of 6. You will love these!
This is the tool I love to use when troubleshooting engine operating temperature problems. You can stand back and aim the beam right on a spot on the radiator or engine to get an exact temperature reading. This can indicate whether or not your radiator is plugged and confirm if your temperature gauge is accurate or not.
If you are running SVO it can give you accurate readings of the temperature of your oil - both during filtering and coming out of your boost heater.
Features:
Good Used BEHR German fan clutch replacement for 113,111, 108 and 109 chassis gas engines from 1968 to 1973, all 114 and 115 gas and diesel, all 123 gas and diesel engines 1977 to 1983 and 1981 to 1983 126 300SD. PLEASE NOTE: This clutch is for engines that have the 5 blade aluminum metal fans. If you have the newer multi-blade nylon fan then you will need a different type. This clutch lists new for $272.00. If your fan clutch is loose, making noise, or your engine is overheating this is your chance to replace it for a very good price. We also carry these new for $178.00
I have aluminum fan blades used if you need that also. Email for price.
PLEASE NOTE: This will not fit 107, 116, or 126 V8 gas engines.
This steering wheel is not perfect but it is above average. No major damage on the rim but there are a few very fine cracks right where the center bar meets the outer ring. Very good horn ring and horn pad (no cracks in the pad cover).
Has 5 bolt hole pattern to attach to steering column. Fits 1969 to 1972 models 280SL 280SE 280SEL 280SEC and 300SEL.
This lug wrench came with most models from the mid 60s to the late 70's that used the standard hubcaps. The end has a curved tip to allow you to pry the hubcap off.
If you have read very many of my manuals and instructions you already know how much I detest Silicone Gasket Sealant. I know there are places for silicone (ie bath tub caulking, etc), but it should not be used on internal combustion engines!
Applies to all Mercedes, PON FIN Pre 1960, 190SL, 110, 111, 112, 113, 114, 115, 108, 109, 107, 116, 123, 126, 201, and 124 chassis. Here is a kit you will love to have around the shop. If you don't like using those poor quality US hose clamps (the kind that cut into the hose) then here is a chance to have spare quality (no nick) hose clamps for those fuel and coolant related repairs. Kit comes with large size hose clamp. Hose clamp size is 32-50/9.
Great to carry in trunk for emergencies. Nice case. No instructions included with this kit. Bulbs are applicable to most models from the early 70's to late 80's.
This kit includes:
If you plan to change coolant hoses this is a must have labor saving tool. This is one cleverly designed tool. Could not have done it better myself. I actually use to make a couple different types before I found this one. If you have ever tried to remove a radiator hose corroded to an aluminum housing you know what I am talking about and you will love this tool. Great when changing radiator hoses, especially the short hose. 8 inches in length.
It will get those stuck radiator hoses loose and off in seconds...
This removable thread locker is probably the best that I have used. It has the best sealing cap and cures rapidly and reliably when confined between metal parts. Use it to lock threaded fasteners, nuts, bolts and screws from loosening. Extremely important in critical engine and suspension parts. This is the removable type (meaning that it can be easily removed with hand tools). Comes in small .20 Fl oz. bottle great for most small jobs.
Excellent for all work around diesel engines to prevent vibration failure and breakdowns. If you need the red more permanent type CLICK HERE.
This permanent thread locker is probably the best that I have used. It has the best sealing cap and dries hard in 20 to 60 minutes. Use it to securely lock threaded fasteners, nuts, bolts and screws from loosening. Extremely important in critical engine and suspension parts. This is the permanent type (meaning that it is possible to remove only when applying heat to 450 degress F - with propane torch) or a very heavy breaker bar. I like to use this one on brake caliper bolts as it is such a critical bolt.
Excellent when retaining bearings and bearing races, freeze plugs, rocker arm and main bearing studs, etc. Can fill gaps up to .007 and assures positive controlled locking.
If you work around your Mercedes much this is a great tool to have. The quality is exceptional for the price. It will reset to measure in both inches and millimeters. For a limited time I will even include a spare button battery at no extra cost.
If you are going to test and tune your diesel fuel injectors this is a must have tool! It is the best way to determine the current thickness of the pressure adjusting shim washer in each injector and to help choose the proper replacement. We are committed to helping you service and overhaul this critical maintenance component.
