W123 Firewall Mount Throttle Linkage Pivot Bushing Assembly - USED

For most 1981 to 1985 diesel 4 and 5 cylinder models - This is the best used one we have seen since new ones went NLA!

This appears to have been a replacement several years back, almost like new. The rubber on the tips and in the hole is fully intact, and the ball is soft and undamaged.  Look at the cadmium plating! Hard to find a better one. Check your throttle linkage movement at the firewall.
