    Driveshaft

    I cant find anyone to balance my driveshaft so I guess I have to buy another one.
    I have m50nv g260 and 4.10 diff , will a 325 driveshaft work ? I'm not sure what car mine came out of

    As long as its not one of the big flange eta driveshafts (late 86-87 build date cars typically), the driveshaft should bolt up to the 325i g260 with the appropriate center support bearing for your car, as early cars

    Another option would be to buy a rebuilt driveshaft and send yours off as a core, this way you'd have new u-joints as opposed to a 20+ year old part that might be on its way out.

      Which one do I need though ? A stock 325 one?

        What year/model is your car itself? And is the transmission original to the car or do you know the vehicle it came out of if not? (Sometimes the VIN stickers will still be on the bellhousings which can be punched into a VIN decoder)

            Stock replacement 89' 325i manual transmission driveshaft should be what you need then.
