Application in Mercedes-Benz B W245 200T Sport
The presented component is a suspension replacement kit dedicated to the Mercedes-Benz B-Class W245 model in the 200T Sport version, mounted on the front axle on the left side. The integration of the suspension strut with the wheel hub and brake system mount allows for the replacement of the entire assembly in a single service process, which reduces the risk of assembly errors and shortens workshop time.
The vehicle placement is factory-specified as front – left side, thus maintaining correct suspension geometry and compatibility with the body and steering system design of the 200T Sport version.
Assembly Structure and Function of Individual Components
The suspension strut integrated with the hub and brake mount is responsible for several key tasks in the vehicle:
- guiding the wheel in the vertical and horizontal axes,
- transferring loads from the body to the road,
- ensuring stable mounting of the brake disc and caliper,
- maintaining the correct wheel position relative to the wheel arch and steering components.
By combining these functions into a single assembly, the service receives a cohesive, factory-matched system that, after installation, allows for the restoration of proper vehicle handling and predictable behavior during braking and cornering.
Benefits of Using a Complete Suspension Replacement Kit
Using a complete suspension assembly with hub and brake components for the front left side offers a number of practical service and user benefits:
- reduction in the number of separate parts to order and install,
- easier matching to a specific body version and drivetrain,
- consistent performance of suspension and brake components on one side of the vehicle,
- possibility of quick replacement after a collision or serious mechanical damage.
The used suspension assembly allows for economical repair while maintaining the original performance characteristics of the Mercedes drivetrain, which is particularly important for the 200T Sport version, where steering precision and predictable response to steering inputs are crucial.
Professional Selection by OEM Number and Interchange Numbers
The component belongs to the Suspension Replacement Kits group and has an assigned OEM number and interchange numbers, which facilitates unambiguous identification in service catalogs and parts selection systems. This allows the workshop or user to verify compatibility with a specific vehicle configuration, avoiding problems with installation and fitting to the hub, steering knuckle, or brake mounts.

Condition, Origin, and Practical Application
The offered assembly is a used part, sourced from a dismantled Mercedes vehicle. This type of solution is often chosen by workshops specializing in B-Class model service when maintaining the original construction while optimizing repair costs is key. The assembly is intended for installation on the front left side, which should be considered when planning service work and wheel alignment after replacement.
