Upper control arm.
Bought a pair of Lemforder upper control arms on ebay and received one packaged in a plastic bag with Lemforder on it the other one with a clear bag and a Mercedes Benz parts sticker on the control arm itself. Is this an original MBZ upper control arm?

How does the part number casting compare with the other side?

Ah, I misunderstood sticker. I thought the picture showed the Lemfoerder piece since that looks like the owl logo ahead of the MB star. Does the Lemfoerder piece have a logo? Does it look like the MB star and part number were ground off? Do the bushings and ball joints have comparable markings?

At closer inspection, the bushings say TRW. It was in a sealed lemforder plastic bag.

Lemforder and TRW are both excellent quality by the way.
|
And both are OEM suppliers. MB doesn’t make its own control arms.

Good to know.

Pictures of the other UCA for comparison?
