A2083300175 is the only one for CLK55, the other one is for every other model

Kiitos. I actually figured this out when I googeled even more. And parts guy from Bald.de verifyed this allso during ordering.

Still wondering what is the real diffirence... As far as I know both types should be fullfilled with rubber material. Normal C series bushings are filled only with three contact points and all the no-name aftermarket bushings are allso made this way.

Maybe the AMG part A2083300175 , Is stiffer ?
To handle the wide tires and the torque .

I have read in other posts that the stiffer bushings are for cabriolets, The cabs need it to offset frame tweak and extra weight.

A208 refers to the W208 chassis, A is for all part numbers. It is questionable about the part fitting a W209.

They are not fully filled with rubbes like normal W208 bushes. Weird...

When I pulled the bushings on my '01 55, they were not solid. They were all cracked up too. I put the K Mac kit in.
