I bought a 16V differential from a junk yard & removed the carrier.
To mount the ring gear you need flywheel bolts & a 5MM spacer & bingo I had a W123 with limited slip.
About 3 years ago Tom W. contacted me & I explained just how to do that job.
So if you can find a used 16V differential, you are 1/2 way there.

Exactly. without your help we would not have begun to figure out what was needed to do.
