Never looked at a 116. IIRC 115 has had both types, the roller on leaf spring and the sliding ball detent types. Never seen anything but the latter in 123/126. Never seen anything but roller on cam in 107. Never seen a broken 107 strap, they seem to be significantly more robust than the others. It may be that the bodies are not pot metal, unlike the 115. It's the pot metal that always fails. -- Jim _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
