Vaico V20-18006 Drive Shaft Flex Joint

Drive Shaft Flex Joint for BMW Driveline Service

The Vaico V20-18006 drive shaft flex joint is a disc-style driveline coupling built for BMW applications that require precise torque transfer between the driveshaft and adjoining components. With a 110 mm bolt hole circle diameter, 162 mm length, and 45 mm height, it matches the dimensional requirements of the listed BMW 7 Series fitments.

VAICO is the product line used for OE-style replacement parts, and this flex joint follows that approach with application-specific sizing and a disc joint design for driveline service on BMW 745i, 745Li, 750i, and 750Li models.
