You need equal length 210mm axle stubs which should come with the E39 M5 diff. You'll need to swap the ring gear.

I believe the M5 diff is a 2 clutch with 45/45 ramps.

I don't think you'll need to machine the ring gear holes to 14mm.

I swapped a diff from an E24 635CSi and went with a 4 clutch conversion. The LSD rebuild part wasn't that hard.
