OE 1563200931 — Back Shock Absorber for Mercedes-Benz

Aftermarket back shock absorber comes from tooling houses that hold the original drawings or licensed equivalents. KingMay sources from vetted factories and inspects each batch; the manufacturer name is available on request where your market requires origin documentation.

Match three things: the code on the part you are removing, the build-year range in the Applications table, and the mounting points visible in the reference photo. If all three line up, 1563200931 is a confirmed fit. Send your VIN and our export desk will double-check the ambiguous cases.

For a short distance at reduced load, usually yes — but the risk compounds. A degraded back shock absorber transfers stress to neighbouring components, so a small repair can grow into a full suspension, steering & brake rebuild. Book the replacement once the symptom is repeatable.

Yes, if the alternate shares the same engineering envelope. Shortlist candidates from the Related OE References table, then check bolt pattern, electrical pinout and material grade. A difference in any of those three means it is a different part, not a substitute.

Four variables explain most of the spread: material grade, whether the goods are new production or clearance stock, packing format, and whether the quote is ex-works or landed. Ask for the material certificate alongside the price — that is what makes a comparison like-for-like.

Incoming batches pass a dimensional check, a material look-up against the suspension, steering & brake specification, and a visual inspection for finish defects. Critical dimensions are measured per carton and the photographs are archived against the order number.
