Supplier for Differential Mount Assembly?
« on: January 24, 2012, 04:41:03 »
I need to replace mine as I begin the quest to eliminate noise from the back end.  Does anyone have a link to a source?  I believe I need parts 130-135 here: http://www.sl113.org/forums/uploaded/jeffc280sl/200824181112_cross%20strut.jpg

I recently bought the main part (130) from the MB Classic Center.
The part was correct and works as it should ... of course.

slightly OT, but may be of interest for the OP: The W112 p/n is different. The mount does not have these openings in the rubber part and I believe the shore is harder. Would anybody know the reason? Would fitting the W112 mount be an improvement ? What would be the draw backs ?
