Installation Notes and Tips
Verify chassis and VIN breakpoints before ordering: 2003 Mercedes-Benz E320 and E500 rear applications are listed only up to chassis/VIN A334970 and VIN X108179. Confirm the upper 10mm eye mount and lower stem mount match the vehicle before installation. Because this is an air suspension damper, inspect the surrounding air lines, connectors, and mounting points for wear before replacing the shock.
