Hi,

Just had my SLK fail an MOT - reason given was

"Offside inner front drag link end ball joint has excessive play" (Tie Rod Bush)

Can anyone advice on what Part I need? and where to get it from, I am in London?

Thanks in advance
 
Directly from MB as I don't think these are available as a factor part. If it's just the bush should be relatively cheap - replacing track rod ends is a bit more expensive and best to get a geometry setup at the same time.
 
Thanks, got the drag link for 130.00 from Euro parts. Another 210 pounds to have it fitted and then tracked!

Can't wait to see the end of this SLK now.

Datsun 240z here I come... :cool:

How much are you hoping to sell it for? Now you've done all the work it might be a bargain ;)
