5kq center u-joint part number.

[Konstantin Bogach]

I found this BMW part in cross-reference list of a bearing manufacture in
Taiwan. Along with 2 others BMW parts numbers. They are:
11543040002
33211205310
33213614170
I called several european cars parts suppliers on the list, including
TPC, and numbers do not show up as good BMW numbers.  Probably, dealer
only parts.
You say $70?  Damn significant difference with $10 for Neapco U-joint.
Who knows how long it will stay good, though.  But it is used in Toyota
trucks which  are not lighter, I think,  than our cars.
Oh, by the way.  Here is site of that manufacture on Taiwan:
