Got a vibration through the driveline on your BMW? Did you know that the u-joints are not replaceable on a factory driveshaft? Our remanufactured driveshafts allow for future replacement of u-joints and are rebuilt to a higher specification than the factory driveshaft. We start with OEM u-joints and then machine yokes onto the driveshaft to allow for future u-joint replacement. All bushings, universal joints, center bearings are replaced with new hardware (flex discs are not included but available separately). The whole unit is then dynamically balanced on a precision Axiline Balancer.
The flex disc (aka universal joint or guibo/giubo) and center support bearing (CSB) often fail over time. A failing flex disc can cause clunks when shifting from park to reverse/drive, driveline slop, and excess vibrations when accelerating. A failing CSB will often cause a rhythmic vibration under the center console that increases in tempo as the car increases in speed, squealing or grinding noises from the bearing failure, and driveline vibration/shaking at higher speeds. When replacing either of these items, it is best to replace the associated components to ensure your driveshaft is properly supported and connected to the transmission output and differential input. This kit includes all of the basic items needed to complete this service in your BMW.
