Early 1600 Driveshaft Flex Discs???

Recommended Posts

Went through some old receipts and catalogs for my Feb. 68 1600-2 which had the 3 guibo driveshaft.  I found numerous receipts showing part # 26 11 1 100 863 flex disc.  In an old Rocky mountain motor works catalog it shows that this is for a 2002 thru 68.  Since I don't have a 2002 I must have used these on my 1600.  I bought them from Maximillian Importing Co.  in 2002.

Ach! Another bargain from BMW! Only $187 each and 3 required.

 

Given all the 3 bolt flex discs in use by BMW/MBZ etc. is there an interchange known? 76mmx10mm. Any thickness will work as shaft has a slip joint.

All I can find is "original OEM. " I wonder what the resource would be to search ALL flex discs by size and see what's 76x10? This should be  $25 problem not $200.

 

Be easier to cut the 3 flanges off the shaft and replace them with E36 parts than to hunt these puppies down now and later.

 

Thanks Einspritz for tracking this one. It's for one of the guys on here.

OK. They are / were made by Jurid, from an OLD import car catalog.

 

Look to see if your 3 ear flange is the same as an E21.

 

the 6-bolt units were used on the '81-'83 manuals and '77-'83 Automatics. the size is 108mm O.D. x 28mm thick, 10mm holes.

26-11-1-225-624

Your quest begins.

Yep. That's the same part with the old part #. Each old-style driveshaft uses 3 of them. That's what we're looking for - just not at $200 each.

 

Soak those guys in Armorall for a day.

    BMW Neue Klasse - a birth of a Sports Sedan

    Unveiling of the Neue Klasse Unveiled in 1961, BMW 1500 sedan was a revolutionary concept at the outset of the '60s. No tail fins or chrome fountains. Instead, what you got was understated and elegant, in a modern sense, exciting to drive as nearly any sports car, and yet still comfortable for four.   The elegant little sedan was an instant sensation. In the 1500, BMW not only found the long-term solution to its dire business straits but, more importantly, created an entirely new

    History of the BMW 2002 and the 02 Series

    In 1966, BMW was practically unknown in the US unless you were a touring motorcycle enthusiast or had seen an Isetta given away on a quiz show.  BMW’s sales in the US that year were just 1253 cars.  Then BMW 1600-2 came to America’s shores, tripling US sales to 4564 the following year, boosted by favorable articles in the Buff Books. Car and Driver called it “the best $2500 sedan anywhere.”  Road & Track’s road test was equally enthusiastic.  Then, BMW took a cue from American manufacturers,

    The BMW 2002 Production Run

    BMW 02 series are like the original Volkswagen Beetles in one way (besides both being German classic cars)—throughout their long production, they all essentially look alike—at least to the uninitiated:  small, boxy, rear-wheel drive, two-door sedan.  Aficionados know better.   Not only were there three other body styles—none, unfortunately, exported to the US—but there were some significant visual and mechanical changes over their eleven-year production run.   I’ve extracted t
