My 1971 MB, 250 Series, needs help with compatible parts and it is SO old it's hard to find any like it. I may need to replace the differential / rear end as there is a rhymical roar I can "feel" occuring when I am driving... let off gas and it stops. Pinion gear perhaps. But, I've found a 1969 230 Series, with a blown engine, but rest looks good so far. A salvage auto yard says the rear ends are compatible. Does that mean the '69 and the '71 both have rear ends that are interchangable? And is there anyway I can change the gear ratio to be higher? Gas mileage is 11-13 on the road and with prices so high... would higher gearing help?
