If you look through the differential threads, you will see that there are many choices. Alot of members, myself included, have gone with large case diffs.

You might want to use the flanges from your existing diff and pop them into a replacement E30 small diff. The flanges snap out by leveraging a beefy screw driver between flange and case. Just avoid putting pressure on the lightweight dust cover that is pressed onto the flange shaft. The ratios I have seen for E30 318i lsds are: 3.64, 3.91 and 4.10. If there are any others, I haven't seen them. Any of these would be an easy and fairly affordable refit into your E36 car. No hassle! |
