3.23 lsd with no flanges

[Mistawall]

hey all. just got this 3.23 from zm3 shipped to me with no flanges and no cover. i have a z3 cover i picked up so thats covered. but im curious if i can just take the flanges from my 4.10 thats on my car? also while the diff cover is off is there anything good to use to clean out the inside? it smells horible. also the person i got it from sent it to me in a bucket that was used for pickles.. lol thinking about painting it green since its a pickled diff.

yes, you can use the flanges as long as the cases are the same.

If it smells like demon farts then that's just lingering smell of gear oil.

Your 4.10 was likely a small case diff so you'll need output flanges from any medium case e30 diff.
