You shouldn't need it. It doesn't come as an assembly on your car. Just replace the spring, 110-993-39-01. Cheap part. Not included with the tensioner, but themost important wear item inside it.

Anybody know where I could get a chain tensioner for an 84 300sd.   All the places I've tried have it back ordered. .

[diesel_mercedes] Re: Exhaust Hangers...seeking the RIGHT ones

 

UPDATE....

Today while going over a speed bump...3rd of 4 donuts broke and dropped the muffler to the ground. Luckily there was a small parking lot nearby and I pulled in. The guy behind me (on a motorcycle) stopped to see if he could help, gave me some giant twist ties, and complimented me on my ride. I was late for an appointment, so my gal came and got me.

I went back several hours later, more equipped to do a quick fix on the spot....to find that the nice guy had done it for me! He got some wire from an iron working shop nearby and strung it up for me...according to the woman working in the thrift store at the lot where I stashed my car.

Kind and generous people are out there...just like this list reminds me every day :)

Soooooo.... I just ordered p/n 107 492 00 44 from AutoHausAZ at under $4 a pop, and under $5 shipping (UPS Innovations....UPS delivers it to USPS who takes it to your mailbox...about same time as UPS ground, way cheaper). I ordered 4 so grand total is under $21.

I'll keep you posted on whether I keep my sanity during install ;)

And, I carry a couple in my car "just in case" having dropped my muffler once upon a time on a Palm Springs speed bump. I give the cheap rubber donuts 1-2 years. Maybe today will be my change out day.  ps-last time I ordered the good ones from autohaus, they were back ordered. They are just rubberized with a bicycle chain embedded, and a PIA to get on. Use soapy water, good screwdriver, and be patient.

There was a whole class of grade 6 kids exploring the countryside outside the window. Max and I took the Mercedes to a big funky shop to get the brakes done. I then started the car using the key to the pickup, & Max stood outside the car guiding me, the brakes did not work so well, so I crashed into a car and into a big lump of machinery, the whole back of the car fell off, I went to complain about the brakes, then Max and I scoured the place but could not find the Mercedes anywhere. Then I woke up.
