Lemforder makes quite a few components for MB, primarily front end suspension parts. I know because I rebuilt the front end of my old 300D and the bushings had the MB logo ground off. I saw the "factory" part with the logo still on in the same location.

This doesn't mean that the factory sourced the original part from Lemforder, but Lemforder is one of the best suppliers to MB.

Chances are good, though manufacturers will often switch suppliers during a model run if they get a better deal. Just in time inventory, and such.
I would not worry about using anything from Lemforder. Top quality goods.
