It really depends on what you are looking for. Are you looking for genuine parts, aftermarket parts, or used parts? I find that Pelican Parts is a good website to obtain both genuine and aftermarket parts. eBay can also be a good option for acquiring used parts. Your local dealership will have genuine parts available at full price.

Yes, I usually buy my euro parts from Pelican but they dont carry the axle shaft. I don't mind reman but feel very leery on used pulls.

Found a reman one, a bit expensive. Part number doesn't match up to the one on my R500 now.

https://www.mbpartsfactory.com/oem-p...Y4LWdhcw%3D%3DREMANUFACTURED FRONT-AXLE SHA - MERCEDES-BENZ (251-330-22-01-80)
  • List Price:$995.00
  • You Save:$281.00 (28% off)
  • Sale Price:$714.00
The one on my R500 now is the exact number on this ebay used one for $132. 2513301401

I think I've ordered from mbpartsfactory. I've never had a problem.

I forgot to mention the rebuilt option. CVJ axles rebuilds Mercedes-Benz axles. I'd recommend calling or emailing them for a quote.

Thanks for that. I emailed CVJ on a rebuilt or rebuilding mine quote.
