i have no idea, someone who does will chime in eventually, i'm sure.
I'm just curious, did they still put the 617 in the G-wagon in1987?

I have seen tensioning rails with Mercedes logo and part number inprinted on them 615 050 10 16 .Just asked at dealer and their system shows lower guide rail with this number .
Proper mercedes number is 615 050 09 16 but clerk assured me all tensioning rails for OM617 are same (this rail only).
I Have one ordered from Europe with 615 050 10 16 number on it .

FWIW, the OM617 was sold in the G wagen until 1991...
