For my 1983 240D, I had to replace the 10 1/2 " long alligator/cigar hose
with a PnP hose that I had in pretty good shape. Question is , I have a
new one that is 12 3/4 " long.
Anybody know the correct model /year this longer hose is for ?? Jabba ??

I would defer to Gary's advice, as one of the last things I bought form Rusty
was a set of motor mounts for the W140. I was insistent that I have OEM part,
as the motor mounts in the W140 are notoriously nasty to replace.
I got what I was told were Lemforders, but I now know they were Chinese
I don't know the brands.
Back when I was less discriminating (8+ years ago) I bought a lot of stuff
on ebay. The "new" SD motor mounts were not an improvement but several
rubber bits that I installed in my 79 TD were great; it rode like a new car.
Some comments here (esp from Gary) make me wonde

Thanks for those comments Marshall. FYI - and I am not sure why this
happened, but I pried the broken nozzle piece from the hose and when it
hit the garage floor it broke into several pieces.It was a surprise

Tell me about it. Replaced all the driveline support rubber from Rusty
on '83 300TD just before he closed shop. Now I can "feel" every piston

previous rubber; even after years of driving with it.

I am constantly amazed how my 32-year-old SD has almost all of the useful
features of the newest cars with few of the drawbacks (except the sun roof).
