Online store for airmatic struts

Dear all,

Does anyone know of a good online source that offers replacement airmatic shocks and struts for a W211?

Thanks!

RC

Try your local dealer's parts desk, you may be able to get it for less, I got a front one for about $400, darn cheap, but I own a body shop. Otherwise the links above work. www.parts.com runs trademotion, if you click on MB, you will see many dealers that use the system, and some offer deeper discounts than others. Check all of them for the best price. Good luck.

Hi all,

Thanks for the info!

They told me that the rear shock absorbers are starting to have a trace or two of oil leak, but that the air springs are fine. I actually am not sure what components make up the rear suspension. I know for the front that it is a single spring/stut unit, but for the rear is the spring and shock absorber separate?

I recall once I found a web store that is very detailed and actually shows parts diagrams of the components/categories. Too bad I lost that site's link.

Thanks again!


Richard

Rear shocks should be available as a separate part:

A "trace of an oil leak" is normal for shock absorbers.
