Wavetrac LSD for Mercedes-AMG & Mercedes-Benz
Wavetrac helical limited slip differentials for Mercedes-Benz cover the HAG215 rear axle used by the C63 (W204), C55, E55 and E63 (W211/W212), SL55 and SL65, CLS63 and CLK63 (the same axle also suits the Chrysler 300C), plus the 190E 2.3-16 (W201) and the 210 axle in the 500E, 500SL and other classic V8 models.
Choosing the right Wavetrac
The 210-axle unit suits final drive ratios from 2.65 to 3.06. For the HAG215 axle, Wavetrac lists the Timken replacement bearings (race NP120839, bearing NP957403), which differ left to right.
Installation & gear oil
Each Wavetrac is supplied as a complete differential carrier ready to accept your factory ring gear. Transferring the ring gear and setting backlash and bearing preload should be done by a professional driveline specialist. No break-in is required. Use the manufacturer-specified gear oil, avoid limited slip friction modifiers, and never use Red Line ShockProof or similar oils - they void the Wavetrac warranty.
