You will have to separate the shaft halves to replace it. MARK THE
DRIVESHAFT HALVES!!! It's not keyed, and if you don't put it back
together on exactly the same s
So, Peter, is that "been there and done that" or a good guess?

Is the droning you refer to more like a "wowing" noise with changing
pitch? My W123 1980 300D did that and

the gassers have 4:00 or 4:11 rear ends, the diesels have something
like 3:23. Lotta low end performance, but 4500 vs 6600 choped the top
end off.
Factory six cylinders usually go 110-120 mph.
Must be something else wrong with it too, a stock 75/75 300D W115 will
do 95.

I am wondering why he is so proud of getting to 65mph. Gump likes to
go near that, but much prefers 70-75 for cruising and topping out for

If I was having the conversion done, I think that I would have put a turbo
