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 recently.

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 Kent installed a new throttle ball to increase longevity.  Check your throttle linkage movement at the firewall. Shake it up and down.
