Guest Anonymous Posted April 18, 2003 Share Posted April 18, 2003 Can anyone verify that the ring gear (not the pinion shaft) from a E30 or E36 318 (small differential) can be swaped into a 2002 or 320 differential case. I know that ring and pinion sets wear in togeather and this would not be a matched set, but this is for a dedicated race car so a little differential noise would not matter. I would like to pull the ring gear out of a 1993 318i or is with an automatic transmission which had the 4.45 ratio. Any info on this would be greatly appreciated.

Guest Anonymous Posted April 18, 2003 Share Posted April 18, 2003 I'm guessing, not! The pinions are cut and sized (dia) differently depending on the ratio of the ring... usually... t Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
