Issues w/ the 55 mph speed limit/gear ratio theory.
I've got the grey market 1980 300D w/ 4 speed manual and 3.46 rear end. It was brought to this country in 1988.

I have to believe that MB was selling their domestic vehicles w/ the best ratio for the engine. Not based on some stoopid foreign gov'ts twitterpations.

Either way, I cannot wait to drop a 3.07 rear end in there!!!



Cheers,
Robert
