When I bought my Reverse Logic Jack Pads, I did have a R170. So these pads were made for R170, but they work great for the R172 too.

I don't think Fredrick made R172 version.

But we can put the post where ever most people can see it.

Oh no! I feel for you...I nearly did the same thing last week. Luckily, mine had clicked into place and was still in place when I checked it a couple of days later.

Yesterday, I decided to "fix" it:

The chain is attached to the trolley jack so it can't be forgotten. Yes, they're NLA, I'm afraid.

So far I have contacted Frederick at Reverse Logic, checked eBay and Offer up.

No luck yet, I think my best bet is if someone on here has sold their SLK and wants to sell their reverse logic pads.

I am not too hopeful.

I really like the Reverse Logic (RL) items, as well. But NLA for our R171. Looks like a quality item. We have AMG lower side skirts / rocker panel trim. Do need extra clearance to keep the base of a similar jack pad. Otherwise SLK will settle on side skirt and crack it. RL sells spacers just for this issue. But $36 ( and NLA) x 4 and then $13 x 4 for the spacers is pricey. But I’d spend for it if I could only find them. Scrounged eBay, car sites, etc. and found none. And we need 4. So I built my own solution. Hope you can find one! 👍

BTW
Great idea, Rick!!
