Hi folks, need a bit of advice from anyone that's attempted this job.

I am told the S124 has different bearings that the W124 which are harder to remove.

The Peach Parts ' W124 How To' is a good start but has an outer bearing which the S124 doesn't.

From what I can see, the actual S124 bearing might be smaller at 43mm length, 84mm diameter.

Here's where I need the advice, the tool suggested has a outer diameter of 84.5mm plus you have the seat reducing bearing further, perhaps down to 80mm?

Here's the tool as advertised.



This should be fine if I can find a suitable replacement 'push' part as shown in photo 2, top right.

So, could anyone kind person tell me what size the bearing face is at the back?

Thanks all -
