Yeah, I saw your post which made me wary of buying some aftermarket checks. Thanks for the info.
I know others have posted the warning before, but keep these checks lubed up!!! The '82 300SD ones I pulled are nice and smooth, by comparison my busted 240 checks are dry. I think I am going to deconstruct one of these busted ones to see all the components and understand better the best way to keep them fresh and lubed.
