FS: W211 E55 Quaife Differential
Any takers for a new in the box Quaife LSD for an E55 at $1300?
The part number is 48 309 185 and should fit all years of E55 and if memory serves the SL55 and many other applications.
I also have available an "installation kit" for an '03 E55 at $155, this will not work on the '04 or later due to bearing differences. The kit consists of a complete set of ring gear bolts, a pair of new bearings with races, a pair of output flange seals, and an axle nut which are all new parts from MB. This is everything you should need short of gear oil and a tube of black silicon gsket sealer to do the installation.
I will sell the diff alone but would love to find someone with an '03 to off the entire package.
Please PM me with any questions.

Yes, it will fit an E55 and all the install parts I have will fit except for the bearings. The only things you will need for the install other than what I have would be a correct set of bearings for $130, and a tube of gasket sealant for the rear diff cover.
I am selling because my racing schedule is such that I have not had time to do the install and will not have time to do the install anytime soon. I have been so busy that me E55 has only accumulated 2500 miles since December and it is my daily driver!!!!!
It makes sense to get someone a good deal rather than have it sit on the shelf. If I find the time to do the diff and drive the car, I will order another.

The diff will not fit all E55's. The axle shaft splines changed around 02/ 03 that is why quaife have 2 diffs for the E55. Do you have the quaife part number for the diff? the part number you supplied is not the part number.
