    Try Tristar Parts in Arizona. They have many old Benz cars in their scrapyard, and will ship direct to you.

    Rusty Cullens lists the whole linkage, brand new, for just $69.55.

    There are literally thousands of these cars is salvage yards. Call around, especially to the ones who specialize in foreign or European cars, and see if you can find the entire assembly used. You will save a lot of money over new "dealer" parts. You may even get lucky and find one that was almost new when the car was sold to the salvage.
