The rest of the control arm bushings for the front alone are $1255.
For the W124 it's only $219 for all front bushings and ball joints, correct me if I'm wrong. I don't mean it in a snarky way, I could be addinb stuff up wrong.
The subframe kit and axle to housing subframe bits are $93 vs $315 (W126)
Diff mounts are $20 together vs $292(W126).
I just don't agree on that.

When you consider that just about every part you list as expensive is available from Lemforder (the OEM supplier to Mercedes) for roughly 25% of what the MB-Star marked part (most likely supplied by Lemforder) is available for, your arguments start to lose a lot of credibility.
