Full Kit Both Axles w/ special tool and installation manual. WARNING: This is kit will only work on the ORIGINAL FACTORY U.S. MARKET AXLES THAT CAME ON THE CAR!
Product Details
FITS THE FOLLOWING: 114, 115, and 123 chassis Mercedes to 1985 that use the rear axles with the crimped sealed cans over the flex joints (spider). Read the text for more detail. This kit WILL NOT WORK on any other axles both Mercedes and aftermarket. Watch the video below and get under your car and carefully inspect your axles BEFORE ordering.
Mercedes rear axles of the 1970s and 1980s are extremely robust. I have seen them go over 400,000 miles with no adverse wine and with their original axle boots still in place. But as these cars age, I am seeing more problems with axle boot deterioration and axle joint failure. This kit will help you to replace your old boots (on the axle types that have the sealed can over the inboard spider gear). NOTE: if your joint covers have bolts in them then this kit will not work!
The kit I offer comes with all four boots, clamps, and lube to do both axles. These are quality parts. I also include my manual and a special hand-crimping tool absolutely necessary to complete the job. You will get step-by-step picture instructions on how to successfully do this job yourself and prevent possible failure of your rear axle joints.
Special tool included free of charge:
PLEASE NOTE: There is no way to really be sure that your axles are "rebuildable" until they are removed from the car and checked over. If you purchase this kit and then decide you do not want to or cannot rebuild your existing axles you can return it for a refund. However there will be a 20 percent restocking fee and all parts in the kit must be returned, along with the book and the crimping tool, exactly as they were shipped to you.
We also have boot kits available for the larger R107 W116 and W126 chassis axles. Please see related products below:

To remove your axles you will need to remove the rear plate on your differential. There is no gasket but does require the correct sealant when replacing. See related products below to order:
