I have been discovering this is one of those maintenance areas that suffers from severe neglect. Failure of the rubber support or center drive shaft bearing can cause all types of improperly diagnosed vibration problems - some commonly change with vehicle speed.
Kent purchased it from the original owner in Seattle in 1990, this beauty spent its entire life in the Pacific Northwest and is a rust-free preservation example of a very rare fuel-injected Mercedes. It has NOT been restored but has been well maintained.
These two types of fiberglass can bridge over small to medium rust holes and give a lasting repair to what otherwise becomes a very time-consuming and expensive repair.
Forget about this bolt rusting again on your sway bar. Included are 2 correct bolts and blue thread locker to secure them in place.
For all 123 and 126 models from 1977 to 1991. This is a SAFETY ALERT! Your sway bar can break unexpectantly at the end if your car has been subject to chassis corrosion. Watch Kent's video below. He will explain how to inspect this area and why this part is your best option for repair.
PLEASE NOTE: 12mm long and short bits have been removed. Special Price
The original fuel filter has a rigid right-angle fitting, as shown in the pictures below. We do not provide this fitting in our fuel delivery kits as more often than not it can be removed from your old filter and installed in the new filter we provide.
Look for wetness around the back side of your tail lights as well as old streaks of white. These seals will leak when they are old.
Recently tested by Kent. Motor runs smoothly and gears are in good condition. Great for rebuilding another antenna. Study the picture CAREFULLY. This is the actual part you will receive. Nothing else is included.
Condition as shown. This is the actual part you will receive.
This one is way above average. Bright chrome. No dents and no curb damage on the edge. There is some minor surface rust on the back side, but that can be cleaned up and painted. NO clips included.
When removing valve covers or changing wires, replace these with new ones. They may look good, but they usually break due to engine heat and age.
Cover is a little rough but the info inside is very valuable. This Manual Covers the introduction to US version W116 Models that had auto climate control, including the 280SE, 450SE, and 450SEL, and the service of the Automatic Climate Control System.
Look closely. These are the actual lights you will receive. The glass is free of breaks, chips, or sandblasting. The plastic headlight doors are in good used condition. Bulbs are included, but I can not guarantee they will work. Lights have been stored in a warm shop for the past 15 years.
In 1990 the R129 was the first Mercedes to have a cabin air filter. In fact, it may have been one of the first cars that even thought about the idea. I love cabin air filters and I find they hardly ever get changed. Located under the hood back by the firewall.
This is the best quality aftermarket blower we have seen and comes with a 24-month warranty. Be sure to change your cabin air filter at the same time. See below to order.
New part as shown. See related products below for application.
You get to grease these up yourself before installation. The 2 oz. container of grease included is more than enough to load them up before installation. Never too much grease in a door check strap... :-)
New black studded cap as shown.
This is a set of four custom made Torx head door striker bolts. They will eliminate many headaches related to door closing issues on the W126 and 560SL doors. These are extras you may need when you adjust or replace your striker(s), and they do not include instructions or special tools.
The door striker set shown includes eight new Torx bolts and instructions on how to install and adjust the new striker plates. What are the advantages of these new-style bolts? Watch the video to learn more.
Left and right door strikers as shown. No extras
For later 1973 to 1980, 4.5 V8 engines - 450SL, 450SLC, 450SE, and 450SEL. Very nice set of high-performance wires for your 450V8. But we ask you to check your distributor cap before ordering as there was a change in 1973 and even some 1974 models may have the older orange/ brown color cap.
It is the front door strikers that usually wear out first. This complete kit will help you get the old bolts out and the new strikers installed and adjusted properly. The new torx head bolts will give you worry-free adjustments or removal in the future.
Steel waste gate housing cover plate as shown. No hardware or gasket
