I purchased Lemforder rear differential bushings from a reputable online source and they appear to be too small for this application. The Lemforder number is 1098501 which has a Mercedes number printed on the box of 1243527765. If this is the incorrect bushing can you help me source the correct ones? Non ASR differential if that matters. Thanks for any assistance.

E420 differential bushing help

You have 6-cylinder bushings, which are much smaller. What catalog indicated these were correct? You need p/n 129-351-18-42-64 which appears to be a dealer-only item.
The tool is also larger... and you may need to partially drop the subframe... and you MUST measure the position of the old ones, before installing the new ones...

Thank you so much for the correct part number! Yes several vendors are indicating compatibility with these smaller bushings with V8 models. Fortunately they were not that expensive. Have a great weekend!
While I have your attention. Would you mind letting me know if the forward mounts work for my E420 1243511342 or are they also wrong? Thanks again.
