Lemfoerder Vs Lemforder

Is Lemfoerder and Lemforder the same company?
I ask because I need suspension bushings for my 87 300D and I see both names used. The last thing I want to do is buy low quality parts thinking I am getting best quality parts.

Thanks!

yes. It's actually Lemförder in German, but the ö is transliterated to oe in English. Or the umlaut is left off entirely...

Yes the same & most likely they are BOGE brand.
ZF ownes all of those companies.. Sachs, Boge, Lemfoerder, & of course ZF.
