[W126 Coupe] Rear diff?

[Eddie]

HAHAHAHA?  Well, why don't you say 'hello quaife' and get back to us with
how much time and money YOU spent, and let us know how to do it?

I'm not poking fun at you, but it's not as easy as you imagine, as several
of us having been trying to find an alternative that costs cheaper than the
AMG (which is THE CORRECT AND ORIGINAL PART btw).

Hahahahahahahahahaha...why would someone pay so much for a used
differential when they could just say "Hello, Quaife?"

Richard,

The AMG diffs are extremely hard to find as most of them have blown up
by now.

If you find one expect to pay ~$5,000.
