Small to Medium/Large case diff swap

Post by sparkle »

Hello,
As title suggests, does anyone have any info on doing this in an E21? Have noticed a E21 in my country for sale, that has had an E34 540i diff fitted, apparently a large case.

This would involve building a custom subframe.

The only what I have done is by swaping rear axles, or modifying the e21 rear to take an e12 diff
