It's actually a BMW part, just did this on a 4000Q. It's not 100% identical, 
though. The new carrier will have to be spaced out a bit more from the body 
to achieve a relatively straight shot from the trans to the rear 
differential.

Unfortunately, I don't have the part # handy, but if I run across it, I'll 
let you know.
