Congratulations! That, for me, is a complex job. It must feel rewarding to have accomplished the rebuild and being on the road again. Enjoy!
Hi, I might need an input shaft too... could you send me the seller's contact info by PM? thanks!fastfil2004 wrote:After much searching I found that the bmw input shaft is back ordered indefinitely from bmw. There is a guy in British Columbia who makes improvd replacement shafts - he thinks they are worth $1250 and is soliciting orders. Sorry but that is just not acceptable to me.
After much research and searching I found a machinist in the fatherland called "michino" on ebay who also produces an improved shaft with longer splines and improved hardness ratings.
His price was a less mind boggling $490 shipped so that is the way I decided to go.
It arrived today and looks very well made. Next step is to strip the transmission so wish me luck.
