Fred beat me on Dave's file, but here is one from Stu below.

Here is the list that I found. Note that probably the diff from a
second gen 126 will not bolt into a 123 but the 85 126 will work
in the 123. So you have 4 vehicles as donors, the 123 300d, 300cd
and 300td and the 126 300sd. All of those are 85's.
Compatibility
Different final drives

That's it, thanks Fred!
No 126, but it does have 123, 129 and 140.

I just put the drivetrain (engine, transmission and rear end) from a 84 300D
into my 83 240D. The rear end I used was a 3.07. It is working out very well.
Plenty of pull in the lower gears and high end cruise at 70 to 80 is pretty
comfortable. Huge difference from the 3.69 rear end I had in the

Hmm, would a 3.46 from a non turbo 300D be an upgrade for a 240D in a
world with 70+ speed limits?
Looks like a 1987 300D diff would do what Karl wants, maybe with a rear
cover change if he puts it in a W115/W123

I don't know, but $50 plus shipping has got to be less than $250.
Problem is, the halfshafts are holding the oil in it so opening it up,

Dave M. has a spread sheet of differentials on his website, I know it covers
124 and 126 cars, don't know that it covers 123 cars.

Ok thanks. Pretty sure all the non turbo cars were different. I will look
for a technical manual but if you can check the stamped number on the diff
I would appreciate it Kevin.

Yes, that would be quite expensive to ship! I am not sure how much one would
weigh? I have contact information from a guy that offered one for $250 to the
lady selling the 240D if I decide to go that route. My new guide dog is
currently in training until around the new year, and my wife’s guide
And here I was, getting ready to jokingly offer Karl an old W123 240D diff
I have, as a 3.69 or whatever it is will surely get off the line quicker
than a 2.88...
But shipping a diff from Cathey's house or Klebville would probably be
cheaper than from Michigan.

I found a 240D parts car that has everything I need for mine, the driver’s
seat, windshield, and possibly other things I might find. The person is selling
it since the differential went out. everything else seems to work but the AC,
so when I pick it up on Monday, I will have to make a decision
You need an MB Technical Data book for the 123. My oldest one covers the
107, 124, 126 and 201, from 1985 to 1988, sorry.

Yes it is from an 85 300td. I think it has a taller diff than other 123 cRs
because the 1st gear for 85 is lower. Thanks for checking. Kinda surprised
it went but the stethoscooe doesnt lie.

I’ve got to knacker this 79 TD. No idea what it has in it. I have one from like
an 84ish 126 but no idea if that would work.

If that is from a 1985, maybe.
Give me a day or two to look.
