At Pelican parts the "OEM supplier", Lemfoerder kit is priced at $36 each. (2 needed for the car for all kits).
The Meyle HD kit costs $54 each .

The Mercedes brand (which is probably Lemfoerder- yes?) is priced at $83 each kit.

Are you all implying that Lemfoerder kit is the OEM and best quality ?


The front left and right lower control arm assembly with bushings cost about 4-5+ times the cost of only the bushing kits each.

123fanman, interesting insights, Is there labor savings in replacing the entire lower control arm rather than just the bushing?

I plan on having a mechanic do the work.

Thanks
