Found Karl's email about his 87 124 wagon: He transplanted 500e/600sl brakes, onto his 87 wagon. It is my understanding that the 126 wheels will fit on a 123, if so, I'd think the brakes/calipers would bolt up. But I've never done it. Dan Penoff via Mercedes

[MBZ] SLS pumps

OM603 TD (and the 124 TE) runs a belt driven dual pump.  THe front is PS and the back is SLS. Several sources told me they were not repairable.   When I gave the pump numbers to Q, he came up with a kit.   I bought two.  I messed up one inner seal, but successfully rebuilt the pump.
