So unless you're looking to do the 5 lug swap by means of entire rear end swap, you're better off to just swap the guts of the diff out
right?
Axles are independent of the hubs, in that you can swap out any axle that has the same spline. And all R200 diffs use the same spline axles. So it will work with any car that has a R200 (240, 300, 350, J30, Q45(i think has an R200), ect..)

All you need is the proper Diff cover, Halfshafts and corresponding axles

All the guts can be swapped from one R200 pumpkin to another R200 pumpkin.
