Ohhhh you guys are GOOD! I've been buying a lot of small expensive parts for my new ride and I REEEALLY am glad I didn't buy & ship a diff that won't work.

What I need I suppose is a list of years and models that will work in my '83 300CD and have the holy 2.47 ratio that I yearn for!
I have searched and found a few bits and pieces but clearly was/am confused.
