The Febi is a good choice.

One addendum.
Over time members have found that using the Spicer mad support bearing is the way to go.
They can be had on Amazon for a bargain or the dealer for about double Amazon's price. In most cases they should last as long as the one the truck was built with.
Using a part made by URO, Febi, Hamburg Technic and others will yield a much shorter lifespan of this bearing.

Here is the Spicer I got from Amazon and installed on the 2000 ML320 and it is still great after 30,000 miles.

Ordered form Amazon saw kits with and with out the Screws and Straps. Take it there is not a need to replace those items? Saw some ordered the kit and the straps did not fit anyway.

I was able to reuse the the old straps and clips.
