I had to order the side bearings from 123bearing.com in France.

NP957403-NP120839-TIMKEN
NP604623-NP335170-TIMKEN

I did not remove my pinion gear, so I left that bearing in place; I don't know what its part number is.

I don't understand what you're doing. I thought you said you got a W211 diff and put in SRT8 gears.

Maybe I misunderstood, can you explain in more detail?

The bearings I posted are for the W211 (215mm ring gear), they will not fit the W208 diff.

I am copying what Blackbenzz did with the differential. the car is w208 clk55. I installed W211 LSD along with SRT 3.06 rear gears.I had to modify the differential cover to fit the parts. now the only issue is the bearing, they wont fit

Are you saying you put a W211 215mm ring and pinion into a W208 diff case? I don't see how that could possibly work.

No, I don't. Post some pictures and more details here so others can benefit from this knowledge.

FWIW, I have the same setup in my CLK and it uses the entire diff case out of an SRT8, not just the gearset and carrier. It sounds like you are trying to stuff 215mm ring gear in a case designed for 210mm and I don't see how that could ever work. Your pinion depth could never be correct, even if you did manage to get the Wavetrac mounted.

Look at the cases for your SRT8 and W208 diffs. Do they look similar? Do they both mount with one bolt in the front and two bolts in the rear of the case? If so, then you just need some custom aluminum bushings made and the case will bolt right in. Then you need custom axles and re-splined wheel hubs.
