I would like to swap a 3.25 or 3.23 ring and pinion into my med case 3.73 LSD. My question is are nearly all 188mm r and p's created equal? I'm assuming I have 12mm bolts holding my ring to the carrier. The 3.23 is 14mm correct? So unless I plan on drilling out my carrier (just joking) I can't use the 3.23 right?

You say "Where are your other two cylinders?"
I say "Where's your other camshaft?"

There are 2 carriers, due to the 'tall' or low- ratio diffs having a bigger pinion.
I THINK the change is at about 3.64, but I forget. There was a thread a coupla years back...

So is it possible to use my 3.73 lsd carrier in a 3.25 e28 diff? I think I found one.You say "Where are your other two cylinders?"

I am pretty sure the 3.25 carrier is different than the 3.73, due to pinion size...

The change in offset for carrier caps is between 3.07/3.15.
Anything 188mm on the same side of that split should be interchangeable, save new stuff with welded ring gears and other witchcraft.
Most likely will require new shims too.Originally posted by priapismOriginally posted by shamesonComment

I found and open 3.25 to swap the carrier to. I'm figuring that will be easier than re setting pinion depth etc. I think I'll prob do a fresh up while in there.You say "Where are your other two cylinders?"

Shit, thanks, Northern, my bad. I'd only looked at 2.73 and 2.93....The change in offset for carrier caps is between 3.07/3.15.
