WTB: W123 Engine Torque Struts and Hardware
It appears the motor was out at some point on dads 1985 300D OM617 turbo. The torque struts are there on both sides and are bolted to the motor mount arms, but there are no washers, no nuts, and no bushings on the bottom to the crossmember. So they don't do anything.
Anyone parting out a 617 turbo car want to sell me the struts and all of the nuts, bolts, and washers associated with them? I will ultimately buy new struts, but I'd like to get a complete set of hardware and bushings to figure out what is actually missing, and what I will really need. Thanks!

The new ones with kits are pretty cheap.

The kit I see online does not look right to me. I see a couple of bushings and a long bolt. Aren't there washers of some kind and nuts?

there are a handful of kits. If you send Pelican Parts, (or others) your VIN#, you will get the correct part. I know this because I just ordered and received the mini-shock absorber, bushing kit, and a few other odds and ends. It is somewhat annoying that MB had so many variations for the same car, so you are correct that some stuff looks off or not correct.

I just went ahead and bought them from the dealer. Thanks for the info!
