Review on ๐Ÿš— DEDC Mercedes Rear Air Suspenion Shocks & Air Spring Set for W164 GL/ML 320 350 450 500 550 - PAIR by Aquarium Lanter

Revainrating 3 out of 5

The plastic screw on the frame body is weak. I DO NOT RECOMMEND!

So far, so good. Holds air and ride feels normal. Installation is really easy, but I gave it 2 stars out of 5 on installation as I was frustrated with the plastic pins not holding the device in place. They appear to be plastic for water bottles. Fragile and malleable. The OEM plastic was as tough as Lego plastic and very durable. Both have one-sided flanges. Screw the plastic piece onto the frame bolt and then place the top of the bag onto the plastic piece/flange. The flange is meant to hold it in place; OEM did. I had to break the factory. The parts that came with it just slipped off the screw! After a day of frustration and wanting to get it right. I'm not betting my family's life on a piece of water bottle, I bought an OEM from my local MB repair shop (they just gave it to me). I don't understand how this got so many positive reviews, and NOBODY. complain about it! Are you all worried about your safety? A few comments said that "even a woman can do it", "if you can change a tire you can do it". MMMM. if that's your only mechanical ability, then I can understand why you didn't realize this danger; You're probably running factory lugs instead of the shorter stock lugs. This plastic pin doesn't necessarily support weight like a bolt, but it does literally hold it in place before you lower the car. It also keeps it in line with the frame and forearm! There is a high probability that you will lower the air spring when shifting. Maybe I'm just unlucky and you all have very hard plastic parts and I just made some of the meltwater bottles because they ran out. rzunimag. Otherwise there are no complaints. The quality seemed "good enough" but it only lasted 7 days. Good luck everyone!
