Can i swap differential from 94 E320 Wagon to 90 300E? Anyone knows this car?

Hello, everyone!

Recently purchased 1990 300E that was custom lowered by PO. Car is super good cosmetical condition with just over 100K on the engine. Engine and tranny runs strong, but i there is a little noise from the rear end (especially when i am accelerating) and small vibration between 60-70mph from the drive shaft. I have not had a chance to check my flex disks yet, but i am trying to be prepared for diff swap. I have a chance to get rear differential and speedo from 94 e320 Wagon with 100K on it.
So my question is as it says in the title: Can i swap differential from 94 E320 Wan to 90 300E? I believe gears ratio is different, so what changes in performance i will face?
I will also post a picture of this car - so, if anyone knows more about history of this car, please, let me know. PO was not very cooperative.... But price was very tempting, so i can't pass on it. Ran auto check - all good and clear. This car spend most of it life in Nevada, but now in TX.

Thanks in advance!
