yeah I wanted to put that setup into the TD but didn't know if 
the whole frame needed to be replaced or not. Anyway I had the 84 
sitting around so that was what went in.

And 116. I got tons of them here but that is the last thing that gets pulled 
when a car is getting ready for the crusher. If I pull one off before then it 
then becomes a non rolling hard to move parts car.

I'm guessing 116 or 107. If I were in the market for used I'd be

Search eBay for - Mercedes w123 rear control arm‎ -. There are a couple, 
but not cheap. There is one in Rudyard MI, probably not too far from

You might try Silver Star in AZ.

Just do a search for an axle or differential.  go the page with the 
lowest prices, then start calling them for LCAs.  THey give you the 
phone numbers.   The junkyard doesn't know you got their phone number 
from car-part, but it sorts the ones who want to sell parts, not put 
it on the shelf with a high price, and IF they have an axle or a 
Diff, they have a 123 that probably has LCAs.
