[W126 Coupe] 2.82 Rear Diff for 84 500SEC

[Camran Nassiri]

Jonathan- I have a 90 560SEC (55K miles) that runs rough for about 30 seconds or so when I first start it.  I was told I need to replace the injectors.  What is your price on the injectors, guids, holders and holder O rings?  Is replacing the injectors very involved or fairly easy to do?  I do most of my maintenance; but, not sure if I need any special tools or how difficult of a task this is.
 
Thanks,
Camran
90 560SEC, 91 420SEL

As an aside, if you do a Lot of highway driving you might find the 3.07 from a 450 a bit Busy...granted it will feel Great off the line though!JonathanDivov wrote: 



$1000. That's crazy dough. 
Get a diff from a 450SL/SLC/SE  (W116)
I'll have to check but I think they are a 3.09?? Anyway it is stamped on the outside diff casing.
Look at my other quite recent posts on diffs and all whole the story is there. They are not LS but then neither was your stock diff from a 500.
There is 15 minutes work to change the drive shafts off a 450 diff and replace with the flanges from your old SEC diff.
Just been down this road myself.
Phenomenal difference to the car.

Hi Guys,
 
Do any of you have a line to a Rear diff for an 84 500SEC.
 
I read in the archives’ that they used to exist.  I can still get the gear set from the dealer but he wants $1000.
 
Thanks
 
Jonathan
