Is it possible to put a LSD (40%) from 2002 into a E21 diff housing, and keep the original E21 krownwheel and pinion>

I believe not.

The spare part numbers are all different so that it won't match.

But: why don't you take the 02 differential and change the rear cover to the E21 version and make from one E21 driveshaft and one 02 driveshaft by changing one joint a matching assembly>

That surely will work.

Good luck
Wolfgang

I will use the diff in a 02. My old diff has got broken crownwheel and pinion after last track event. I have got a E21 diff in good condition (no LSD), and CV joints from E21. Maybe I have to look for a LSD for the E21 diff. Thanks anyway!
