w108 limited slip diff
I Just deciphered the data card for my 68 208se. It lists a limited slip differential as one of the options on the car. Is this something to get excited about?
Is this a rare or desirable option on this model? Is the performance better and does it drive differently from a car that doesn't have it? Any info or expertise on the subject would be appreciated thanks! Mark |

Make damn sure you or previous owner used the correct fluid...

My 72 280SE also has the limited slip (read it on the original invoice Option 256 - $70).
What sort of fluid is required for this differential? Recommended Trans. fluid was Dexron B btw, the limited slip, was a bargain compared to the sliding sunroof ($285) The Stereo radio was $289, not including the power antenna (another $88) The most expensive option? the A/C $518

thanks for the info guys! It doesn't take me much to get excited about my w108, but it's a nice treat to know it has limited slip rear end.
I guess this would explain what the old original can of Veedol is doing in the trunk...for the limited slip rear end... |

Regarding your auto antenna where is the switch for that located? Is it a round knob or toggle switch? Thanks

Bill,
As far as I remember, the antenna goes up, when I turn on the Radio. I do not recall seeing a seperate knob for the antenna....although the sunroof switch is right next to the radio. -Larry
