Detailed Description

Vaico V30-1384 is a rear lower suspension ball joint engineered for the Mercedes-Benz GL-Class, M-Class, and R-Class platforms listed above. The part’s 54 mm by 54 mm profile and 121 mm length help identify the correct replacement during suspension service, while the OE-style application coverage supports accurate repair selection for Mercedes-Benz GL350, ML350, and R350 models.

This part cross-references MOOG Chassis Products K500106 and TRW JBJ802 for the same application. Use the V30-1384 part number when verifying catalog match, especially for rear lower suspension work on Mercedes-Benz GL450 and ML550 vehicles.

What It Helps Address

• Rear suspension looseness or play at the lower joint
• Clunking or knocking from the rear suspension area
• Uneven rear suspension movement over bumps and road joints
• Steering and chassis instability caused by worn suspension linkage
• Inspection failures related to worn ball joint components

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm the rear lower position and verify the vehicle’s model year before ordering. Compare the existing joint’s dimensions and mounting location to the listed 54 mm height, 54 mm width, and 121 mm length to help ensure correct identification. On Mercedes-Benz GL350, ML350, and R350 applications, inspect adjacent suspension components during service so worn parts are addressed together as needed.

Quality Assurance

Vaico supplies OE-style replacement components for European vehicle applications, and this ball joint is cataloged to match the specified Mercedes-Benz fitments and dimensions. Always verify part number V30-1384 against the vehicle identification and suspension position before installation.
