Bushes for 1972 350SL

[normanton26]

Where is the best place to buy all the rubber suspension bushes including subframe for my 1972 350SL?

What are people's experience of aftermarket bushes like Febi Bilstein or would you always buy genuine Mercedes?

Thanks

I'd check MBClassic in Germany, the SL shop in the UK or DB Depot.

The difference in price between MB and aftermarket for the rear subframe bushes on my W114 coupe was close to £100 a pair. As the aftermarket ones from MB Classic were Mehle I would not trouble MB with that piece of business. Shop around the links - all are reputable and sent decent parts to me.
