Diff info?
I thought I saw a list of diff gear ratios in here based on model and year of car...
If not does someone have that info or can a sticky be compiled?

My bad. I left out a whole section of 3.07 gear ratios.
But look at the engine model too. The Euro '82 has 617.912 n/a motor and the US '82 has the 617.952 turbo motor.

They both should have a 3.07 ratio. Perhaps a tired torque converter?

Huh. My friends 85 300td has 3.07 gears. According to that it should have 2.88. I'll look at the production date on it tomorrow.
Now we just need a interchangeable list.
Hi I realise this is an old thread but people searching for this type of info still hit this thread so it does need to be correct or corrected.

107,14,115,116,123 and 126 differentials interchangeable up to 8/85
please accept I have no practical experience with these diffs and have been relying on info sources such as this site
my goal is to put an LSD 3.69 ratio into my 74 w107 450slc,so the above info tells me I can swap a 1.1 litre casing into the space formerly occupied by a 1.3 litre casing.
As these casings are different widths,what is it that im missing?
I have 1.1 litre case,correct LSD and gears to complete the build of a 3.69 ratio LSD diff including spacer ring to utilise brand new 190e 16v LSD centre but do not have drawings of housings with dimensions so reading info here I assumed width to be same until I measured them today....
OK so whats the missing piece? different axles? im confused.
When you say width, are you measuring the distance between the C-clip grooves in the housings used to hold the carrier bearing races in?

What I found in the w116 and w126, is the 1.3 liter case typically uses axles that are 2.5 cm shorter than the 1.1 liter case. The 107 most likely be the same. The only way to find out if the 1.3 liter axles would work, is to try them. They will slide into the diff with no problems, just need to space them correctly for locking in the "c" clips.

So what is the best way to get a 3.07 or 3.27 LSD in a 124 chassis? That is--where would I get one of these other than a 1987 190E 16V? I guess the simplest option is to convert a 185mm diff to an LSD. Are there any good documentations for how to do this including parts lists?
Here's a thread on various ways of transplanting lsd. It's pretty long but there's lots of helpful comments by gsxr (AMGDave). The parts go for somewhere around $900-1100 new.
http://mbworld.org/forums/e-class-w124/2...w124s.html
like 1981.10 they changed the differentials according to my documents.
before 1981-10 on w126 the 380SE versions had a 3.27differential, and the 500Se versions had a 2.82 differential, after 1981-10, they both uses a 2.47 diff.
might not be the same in the US.
Mercedes put AC Leather and power windows in every car sold in the US unless specialty ordered with out them. but LSD's are super rare they had to be ordered with it every once in awhile you see them in the very top of the range cars 560sec s600 and so on.
Hell even most of the base w201 190e in this country have leather interior ac and power windows the only car i have ever seen with roll up windows was 240d

naa, not exactly, althou i could find from that to a few different...
more like
124-351-07-05
124-351-06-05
but the 06-05 should have bearings: A0009808402 A0009801102 at the front and
A0019802102 at the sides (aswell as A0229979847 as seal rings..)
07-05 differential had some "roller bearing not available" and showed the setup from the 06-05 differential.
DO NOT QUOTE ME ON THESE NUMBERS/BEARINGS AS 100% that will fit your car....
just checking WIS for what i could find, i am shure you could get these confirmed at your mb-dealer when you have more information about your car/differential or from another forum member...

is 2.24 exclusive to 500sec? is it always a lsd??
Ive seen different information about that, but i think the later 500SE is supposed to have a 2.24 aswell as the 500SEC. up untill 1981-10 the 500SE had a 2.82, and then a 2.24.
Compared to for example the 380SE that went from 3.27 to 2.47 at the same time....
what i have heard the LSD is standard on the 500SEC, but yeah, the LSD part differs on where in the world you live, (you being a swede as me.) i have no information about the 500SE, but
the 500SEC could also be ordered with a 2.47 from what ive heard.

have found a a 500 sec diff 2.24 in germany forsale. but i cant get the stupid german (they dont speak english ) to send me pics of the rear so i dont know if the lsd sign is there. but it is a 2.24 from a 500 sec before 86 so it should fit a w123. it must be a lsd right?
Is the output crazy low for a daily driver superturbodiesel?? cant find much use for my 6th gear with that diff. but i might buy it beacause of the price.
trying to get a hold of a 3.07LSD, there is a guy here in sweden currently selling one of those aswell as a 3.46LSD..
both imported from Canada, so it might be worth it to take a look just a tad north for those precious differentials

I see way more 'Tex interiors than leather interiors.
Hell even most of the base w201 190e in this country have leather interior ac and power windows the only car i have ever seen with roll up windows was 240d
(10-18-2013, 05:00 PM)willbhere4u Mercedes put AC Leather and power windows in every car sold in the US unless specialty ordered with out them. but LSD's are super rare they had to be ordered with it every once in awhile you see them in the very top of the range cars 560sec s600 and so on.Just a nitpick...

is 2.24 exclusive to 500sec? is it always a lsd??
Ive seen different information about that, but i think the later 500SE is supposed to have a 2.24 aswell as the 500SEC. up untill 1981-10 the 500SE had a 2.82, and then a 2.24.
Compared to for example the 380SE that went from 3.27 to 2.47 at the same time....
what i have heard the LSD is standard on the 500SEC, but yeah, the LSD part differs on where in the world you live, (you being a swede as me.) i have no information about the 500SE, but
the 500SEC could also be ordered with a 2.47 from what ive heard.
have found a a 500 sec diff 2.24 in germany forsale. but i cant get the stupid german (they dont speak english ) to send me pics of the rear so i dont know if the lsd sign is there. but it is a 2.24 from a 500 sec before 86 so it should fit a w123. it must be a lsd right?
Is the output crazy low for a daily driver superturbodiesel?? cant find much use for my 6th gear with that diff. but i might buy it beacause of the price.

I haven't looked, but I'm gonna say there's no way MB would put a 185mm diff in such a porky car.
