That is if the diff uses the same mounts...
Does anyone know the score on this? I'm a skilled fabricator so can make up adapter rings and other bits if required, I was just wondering if they will actually fit into the same space in the rear cross member or are they 'totally' different?
Anyone able to help?

You might want to check out some W124 diffs, as per my knowledge the W210 ones mount a bit differently. Although.....as far as I remember reading, those W210 diffs were far from flawless (whining, a lot of whining). What year is the donor car?
