Can anyone please let me know where I can buy rear top spring mounting plates for my LWB 460. MOT man says the time has come to replace! Whilst at it I might as well replace the bump stop rubbers so will need these as well. 
Any info most welcome. Thanks.

Re: 460 top rear spring mountings

A lot on this, on previous threads, parts readily available from MB, mine were £100 each but 5 years ago, they call the bump stops suspension assistance,  you do need a parts person that understands a G which might be a problem.

,Replacement you need a good welder, made much easier by lifting the body off the chassis a few cm. Not as difficult as it sounds .

Then the joys of rustproofing the repair
