Not sure how we manage to justify these cars as daily drivers anymore. That said, considering the cost of diesel these days, one wonders why there isn't a revival on the WVO front?

Will the '84 SEC axle shaft work on the '85 SD?

I was told that in order to make the 2.47 diff from an '84 SEC work in an '85 SD aside from the yoke I also must use the SEC axle shafts. Yet I found that the first gen SEC axle shafts are unique to...

Just to doubly confirm: The half shafts that came with the 2.47 (regardless out of which 126 it came be it SE, SEL or SEC) are needed to make it fit in the 300SD?

Thanks for the confirmation and correction. Nomenclature can be tricky! They do indeed appear to call it a "flange" in the parts catalogue (https://www.ilcats.ru/mercedes)

That would seem make sense. The shop manual (German version) shows the 380SEC as having the 2.47 and the 500SEC the 2.24.

Would the 2.47 out of a US 500SEC be a straight swap into a '85 SD with...
