there should be an id tag on the unit that indicates if it is a lsd, thould be attached to the rear diff cover bolt.

About swapping the diff from a w126 into a w123, its possible it the donor is an early w126. They even have the same housing number. However, the my 300D has a 1:3.46 ratio, while the w126 diff I have has a 1:2.47 ratio LSD. As you can see, the W126 diff is way faster.
I really don't want to loose the actual ratio, as my 300D performs really good as it is. I just want to have the advantages of a LSD as well.
Any idea if I can use the satellite box from the w126 with the crown and pinion from the w123?
