You show pictures of circular steel housing for the bolts, but in the actual pictures earlier in the thread the bolting house looks like a circle with winged edges.


Also, Steve M notes that EPC shows the rear flex Disc being able to be interchanged in lieu of the front one. Anyone else care to chime in with any facts regarding this? I will still get the correct ones, but Kestas was obvious driving for a while with the rear flex Disc with no apparent ill effects other than the fact that the Disc looks like it was mauled.
Need VIN# for correct part.

EPC lists two possible front Disc split by chassis#.

MB# 1244100615

MB# 2024101315

The rear Disc is superseded from MB# 1244100215 to MB# 2024101315.
