So about 2 years ago I was reading through all the info on differential swapping to get a better gear ratio. It all seemed to make sense to me so I went out to the junkyard looking for a good candidate differential for my 300SDL. After a bit of a search I found a 3.07 diff and axles to replace my 2.88. Long story short I love the swap, the car drives better, responds better, and shifts better.
Unfortunately I neglected to write down what model my new diff came out of for future reference. Now, two years on, one of the axle boots has ripped from age and I'd like to replace the axle, but I don't know what axle it is...
The axles fit the SDL but are somewhat different.
Some characteristics of the new axles:
- Larger diameter near differential then SDL axles
- Allen bolts, not triple squares like SDL axles
- Exterior bolts to diff. not internal clip
I'd really like to replace the axles if anyone can help me figure out what model my axle/diff combo came from. Any help is much appreciated.
