So the a rear end from a C55 or CLK55 will bolt right in? And we should use the 55 axles and switch the drive flange from the four bolt to the Crossfire 3 bolt to hook up the drive shat? Do you know if the C55 or CLK55 has a posi rear end? I have seen that a quaife is available for that rear end.
HI LantanaTX,

So the a rear end from a C55 or CLK55 will bolt right in? Only the "older" diff will fit to the crossfire,like from a E55, C55, CLK55 or some Diesel, because anytime MB move the type of rear axels!

....switch the drive flange from the four bolt to the Crossfire 3 bolt to hook up the drive shat? YUP! But to adjust the new screw after remove the drive flange you need a special tourque meter, is require to set up the tapered roller bearing in the diff.

Do you know if the C55 or CLK55 has a posi rear end? What is that?
