  • Wanted: Diff Bracket

    Does anyone have a spare (unused) upgraded diff bracket surplus to requirements? Part no is 41118398664.

    Only place I can see to get it is Coopers but not sure if they actually have them in stock, will give them a phone but thought I would check on here first.

    Cheers

            The diff brackets are just a replacement part not a stronger version so you may be better repairing your existing item if it is starting to tear?

            and re welding the spot welds that attach it to the cross member.

              Mine is starting to look a bit scabby so was thinking of replacing it when i get the floor pan strenghened.
              Am i correct in thinking that bmw did do a revised slightly stronger bracket with a different part number than the original?

                  Ordered from Coopers today, £21 inc postage.

                  Plan is to double up the bracket with original as well as the other reinforcements.

                  Obviously the other part would be better but it's well over £200!

                    That's what I did too, the other part is disproportionately pricier but probably won't be stronger eitherat the bracket so would still need modifying.
