Detailed Description

The 6G-1158DL is an engine torque strut designed to help control drivetrain movement in Mercedes-Benz 190E and 190D applications. Its threaded connection points and compact dimensions make it a fitment-specific replacement for W201 chassis vehicles, including 1984-1990 Mercedes-Benz 190E, 1991 Mercedes-Benz 190E, 1992-1993 Mercedes-Benz 190E, and 1984-1989 Mercedes-Benz 190D. The Stabilus 6G-1158DL is identified by a 139 mm compressed length, 169 mm extended length, and 8 mm rod diameter, which are important reference points when matching the correct engine torque strut for service.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 1158DL, SG403015) for the same application.
