Frame lift point pads
Looking to replace my frame lift point pads on a W126. Old and cracked. They're hard black rubber. Has anyone ever done this? Tried searching many ways but, I'm not sure what they are called. Still available?
TIA, Dave

Dave, call the Parts Department at your local MB dealer. I call them jack pads or lift pads, but the Parts Department will know the proper name, and should be able to sell you replacements. I bought one for a 1992 300CE several years ago ... reasonably priced as I recall.

I think they're $10 - $15 each. I put some on my SEC recently. I had to pry the old ones out of the hole but the new ones went in easy with a floor jack to "convince" them they were going up in to the frame hole.

I think you guys are talking about different things. There are holes for the factory jack in the side rocker panels of most newer MBS, then there are round protruding rubber things under the bottom of most german cars. They are interchangeable at least on modern VW, Audi, and MB. They are 2-pc affairs, a donut shaped soft rubber thing that goes in first then a hard plastic thing that goes into it like the fasteners on the trunk liners. They have separate part #s. I got a set from ECS VW/Audi for $45 then found the same things from /www.1stvwparts.com/ for half that. Sorry I cannot give ya better links but my Windows Vista "Ultimate" crapped out (along with bookmarks) so I am using Ubuntu for now.
