Russell's Review of
the Nitrile Mechanics Gloves :
These gloves are fantastic! I use LOTS of
these working on any car repair or project. If you are sick and
tired of getting black oil, grease, dirt or any other yuck on your
hands, then these are a must have in your tool box. I have used
Nitrile gloves for years. Superior to Latex gloves especially if
you are alergic to latex. Powder free, thick enough not to tear
and thin enough to handle even the smallest nut or bolt you may want to
hold. I use them everyday and my hands thank me!
One size fits all.

Product Description:
If you are looking for
quality lock and key cylinder, I have some in stock for the W123 body
style.
The time it takes to do the job, do it right and it will last for years.
The key will not match the doors, but hey, it sure beats the MB dealer
at $100. The lock cylinder comes with one (1) key. I will
need your full VIN # when you order to ensure you get the right
cylinder. This kit can be used on the following chassis models
123. Please include your VIN# when you order.
Russell's Review
of the Ignition Lock Set:
This
is a great do-it-yourself project that can save you huge $$ over
having a locksmith do it. I decided to do a pictorial on how to
replace them on the Mercedes diesel maintenance tips page.

Russell's Review

just install a new one.

Window
Sealing Strip Kit
|

Price: $72.00
S&H: $Free
|
Product Description:
Stop annoying front window rattling and
shaking. The rubber felt strip that seals against the outside of
the 2 front windows, is really not designed to last 20 years.
Rubber deteriorates with age and gets hard and brittle. Hard
rubber is not a good seal against glass. Since
the 2 front windows get the most movement over time with the windows
going up and down, this kit addresses the broken and cracked rubber
seal. If your seal is cracked or not fitting tight against the
glass, water and debris can get inside the door and start a
moisture/rust problem. This kit will fit all 123 body Mercedes 1977-1985. Please give year, make
model and VIN # when ordering so we get you the proper kit.
Russell's Review of the Window
Sealing Strip Kit :
ts not all that hard to do. This is an item that
most people don't even give a second thought to. The rubber on the
Mercedes cars are very good, but were never intended to last 20 plus
years. A good seal against the glass is all that stands in
the way of water, moisture and debris from entering the door
cavity. The 2 front windows are usually the ones that are most
damaged since these are the 2 windows that are raised and lowered the
most over the life of the car.
The Window Sealing Strip Kit includes:
-
Two (2) Window sealing felt
strips, one for each front window on the outside.

# when ordering so we get you the proper kit.
Russell's Review of the
Wagon Hatch Struts:
The rear hatch struts wear out just like
the suspension shocks. Stop using your wife's broom to hold up the
rear hatch, and letting it hit you in the head. Shocks will make a
huge "smile" factor when you lift the rear hatch.
The Wagon Hatch Strut

Product Description:

smoothly? You may need a new window regulator. This part can be used on
123 300 series cars only . Please give year, make model and VIN
# when ordering so we get you the proper kit.
Russell's Review of the
Window Regulator W123 300 Series Cars:
The regulators can go bad if the assembly
worked loose and the motor torqued it around. If the arms get
bent, its just better to replace them with a new set. If you want
your windows to go up and down like they did when it rolled off the
assembly line, put some new regulators in your car. You have a
regulator assembly in each door. The left side is the drivers
side, the right side is the passenger side. If you are ordering
either the left or right REAR door regulators, then you will need the
installation kit which is (1) window regulator rail and (1) window
regulator kit. The front regulators of either side do not require
the installation kit.

# when ordering so we get you the proper kit.
If you have an 8 tooth drive
motor on the 116 body then email me for your price.
Russell's Review of the
Window Motors:
Sometimes when doing the regulators you
may also want to install a new motor if yours is getting tired.
Mercedes has great window motors, but they do fail. Make sure your
switch is good to eliminate that, if the motor still does not move, its
time for a new one. Each door has a unique motor so order the one
you need for the specific door you are working on. The left side is the drivers
side, the right side is the passenger side.
The Window motors includes:

Russell's Review of the
Exhaust Hanger:
The engine shocks don't last 20 years and
if yours are worn, then replace them. A very easy job to do, and
even easier if you do the motor mounts at the same time. You will
be very pleased with how smooth the engine will get with new engine
shocks.

This is the little strap that pops out of

hand or it will break again.
