My favorite machinist could do the set up if this is a possibility.

Yes, I would chance that it would. The ring gears are the same size (180 or 185mm) and the only hang up would be to verify if the spline count on the axle shafts is the same between the W123 and W126. I'd bet so, but I will not assume.

I'd expect them to be the same, but you just never know. Ford ran 28 and 30 spline axles in the 8.8" rear for example.
