I want to replace rear coil springs on a 2011 ml350 without airide
Hi I have a 2011 ml350 blu tec 4 matic without air ride, the rear passenger spring is broken toward the top of the spring, and I want to replace them in pairs, the oe springs has a white stripe then my question is could I purchase the Bilsteins at a price around $65. or do I have to buy OE at $170. each??. also the rubber mounts thats on the top and bottom of the original spring should probably be replaced also, I would guess thats only available through MB?? Also has anyone used the $65-75 dollar coil spring compressors thats on E-Bay and amazon ?? they look like they will work on this ML !! Thanks In advance, PS if anyone has part numbers Please share them, Thanks Again, Joe

I would use OEM springs. Spring rate, ride height and durability will likely be closer to original specifications.
