The 300SE/SEL 126s of 1988-91 used
a small case diff. There are two versions of the small case however, one has bolt-on side covers which carry the side bearings; the other is without side covers, and the bearings are retained by snap rings. The ratios for the six-cylinder gassers are 3.07 and shorter.
The speedo pickup is in the tail housing of the transmission. The trigger wheel (of varying tooth count) can be changed by removing the tail housing.
