Team MFactory BMW Drivetrain Parts for BMW 5 Series E39 (1996-2003)

Clear BMW chassis

Please ensure your correct model is selected

Building your perfect BMW is more than just adding horsepower and stiff suspension. Your drivetrain needs attention in order to deliver power effectively. Most BMWs feature comfortable clutch discs, heavy flywheels, long shifter throws, and open differentials. The drivetrain transmits power to the wheels, but can also be a source of power loss when it is designed for comfort rather than performance. Everything on this page will help you improve your power delivery and driving experience by providing custom Limited Slip Differentials, Short Shift Conversions, Performance Clutch Discs, Lightweight Flywheels, and anything else your BMW needs to be the perfect driving experience.

The best way to gain a prominent advantage over the competition is to do it with the MFactory Helical Limited Slip Differential. The smooth consistent distribution of power to the wheels with the MFactory Helical LSD puts the power to the ground and maximizes your vehicle's traction. A must for any car be it street, strip, or track. What exactly does an LSD do you ask? well without an LSD your car is actually 1 wheel drive, in that it can't supply torque to both wheels at the same time and will only supply torque to the wheel with less grip, which is what the shortfall is to an open differential (what most vehicles have). An LSD only lets the wheels spin at different speeds by a limited amount (typically this is a percentage difference) which is when the differential locks and both wheels get power. This is not how locked differentials work such as in off road trucks which supply equal torque and rotational speed to both rear wheels at the same time, which can cause issues with handling.

The best way to gain a prominent advantage over the competition is to do it with the MFactory Metal Plate Limited Slip Differential. The smooth consistent distribution of power to the wheels with the MFactory Plate LSD puts the power-to-the-ground and maximises your vehicle's traction. This 2-way differential will provide torque transfer during both acceleration and deceleration. This means that regardless of whether there is load (throttle) being applied to the differential or not, it will lock up during slippage. Ideal for those with track use in mind.

Features: Forged and Cryo-Tempered for unsurpassed toughness Advanced Shot Peening technology for increased surface hardness Coil Spring preload system ensures minimal power loss and maximum response Lower initial pressure ensures maximum durability and chatter-free operation Fully rebuildable with adjustable lock (80-100%) and option for different cam types Available in 1.0, 1.5, and 2.0 way options

The best way to gain a prominent advantage over the competition is to do it with the MFactory Metal Plate Limited Slip Differential. The smooth consistent distribution of power to the wheels with the MFactory Plate LSD puts the power to the ground and maximizes your vehicle's traction. This 1.5-way differential works similarly to a 2-way in that it provides torque transfer during both acceleration and deceleration. However, the advantage over a 2-way is that it requires less force to lock the differential. This means that it will allow for different wheel speeds, like when cornering. A 1.5-way differential is typically the best option for track or street use, as it keeps from having one tire skipping or dragging.

Gaining a prominent edge over the competition is now within reach, thanks to the MFactory Helical Limited Slip Differential offered by Turner Motorsport. This Helical LSD ensures a seamless and uniform distribution of power to your BMW's wheels, significantly enhancing traction whether you're on the street, strip, or track. It's an absolute necessity for BMW enthusiasts.

Curious about the LSD's role? Without it, your car essentially operates as a one-wheel-drive machine, delivering torque solely to the wheel with less grip. This is where the Helical LSD shines, as it allows both wheels to receive power by limiting the speed difference between them, in contrast to the open differentials found in most vehicles.

Key Features:

  • 30-Day Feel the Torque™ Money Back Guarantee: An industry-first assurance that enables you to experience the difference. Furthermore, it comes with a Limited-Lifetime Warranty, offering peace of mind.
  • Forged and Cryo-Tempered: Engineered to deliver exceptional durability and extended lifespan, ensuring it can withstand the rigors of even the most demanding challenges.
  • Advanced Shot Peening Technology: Enhances surface hardness, making it well-equipped to handle the shocks experienced in competition-level drag racing.
  • Maintenance-Free Gears: Bid farewell to the hassles associated with special fluids or rebuilds commonly required for plate LSDs. It's designed for a trouble-free ownership experience.
  • Lock-Free Operation: Ensures there's no adverse impact on steering response, delivering a smooth driving experience.

Break-In Procedure: For optimal performance, it's recommended to change the fluid after the first 3-400 miles of use.

Please note that any defects or warranty claims should be directed to Team MFactory.

Allows for traction at all times by providing the most power to the wheel with more grip. Unlike plate differentials (1,1.5,2-way) helical LSDs can supply different spin rates to each axle, like when cornering.
