2017 GLS63 Suspension Upgrades?
Hi guys!
My wife's GLS63 has control arm and bushing issues so instead of dropping thousands on that at the dealership I figured I'd just get the whole suspension redone. Car is around 50k miles and it's time to start refreshing some things. Is there a go to for the GLS? If there's more than one who do you guys recommend for suspension? What about downpipes and a tune? I've been looking as Weistec for the Tune. I really appreciate any help!

Hi JoshTruex
I have the same car. I'm thinking in refreshing the entire suspension. Not sure if going to replace the arms or just the bushings.
It would be great to have all the bushing part numbers, as some may be difficult to find.
If replacing entire arms I would go genuine Mercedes, Lemforder, febi bilstein in that order for availability and price. Check FCPEuro site and RockAuto, sometimes the same part/manufacturer has a substantial price difference
