Are you looking for the home made device for centering the diff between the trailing arm mounting bolts as per the attached photo?

eBay is your friend. I searched on Mercedes wheel mounting tool and got one hit for the one you are looking for. US $160.

Thank you Jonny B.. yes, I see that.. hoping to find one that is not so expensive.. modern ones are only £7:00 sterling and repo ones are about £50.. only original ones seem to be that price.. 😕

If you need the original part...if you don't, and just need one for practical reasons, I made one myself for my wife's Audi RS3 from a large bolt.

Way beyond my merge capabilities I’m afraid.. looking for an original or cheap repro… but must look the part..

Only look the part? Surely you need one that works but doesn’t need to look original in style?
