Rear subframe bushings

Does anyone have a source for these that isn't $300 or more. The front kit was so much cheaper. Why the difference and lack of aftermarket availability?

Thanks,
Matt.

No alternatives are likely to be forthcoming

Alas, the rear subframe mounts you have were specific to the W107 'SL's' ONLY. 107 586 0035

The SLC's have the same as used on W114, W115 and there are cheaper alternatives. Whatever alternatives to MB there may have once been seem to vanished for your part.

Well, it's a pretty easy DIY job, so figure the extra $200 you put into the parts goes toward your skill enrichment and satisfaction.

Low, low demand.

And the performance reward for changing them is also low.
