The design combines a hydraulic damper, progressive spring rate, and air-adjustable construction to support consistent front suspension performance. Arnott’s NEW product line focuses on new-build suspension components rather than remanufactured units, and this assembly reflects that approach with a steel upper mount and durable air sleeve construction. This part cross-references Mercedes-Benz OE numbers 1643204313 and 1643204413 for the same application. AS-3088 is a strong match for owners searching for a Mercedes-Benz GL450 front air suspension strut, Mercedes-Benz ML350 front air strut replacement, or a front air suspension strut for GL550 and ML500 models.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCommon Problems This Part Can Address\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFront-end sagging from a worn air spring or leaking bladder\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUneven ride height between left and right front corners\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExcessive bouncing or poor damping response\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAir suspension warning lights related to strut leakage or wear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNoisy or unstable front suspension operation on AIRMATIC-equipped SUVs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eVerify vehicle equipment before ordering, especially AIRMATIC and ADS coverage on GL-Class applications.
