Anyone know what rear diff will fit to an F reg 320i? It's the one with black bumpers and rear drum brakes - from either 1987 or 1988. Will any E30 diff fit to it, or do I need to be careful which one I put on?

Cheers, Ian

I think the 4.10 is the standard for the 320, any diff from an E30 will fit but you need to keep the same ratio.
There is NO nucleus.

Ok thanks a lot - that's the general feeling I was getting from reading other threads. If anyone has a 4.10 diff without high mileage going spare please pm me. Cheers, Ian
