Dorman - OE Solutions Drive Shaft P/N:936-717
Dorman 936-575 rear drive shaft for the 1988-1991 BMW 325iX carries engine torque to the rear axle. This Dorman drive shaft is a one-piece steel assembly made to replace a rear shaft that is worn or damaged.
A vibration at speed, a clunk when pulling away or a squeak from underneath can mean worn U-joints or a worn shaft. These signs alone do not prove the drive shaft is the problem, since an out-of-balance tire can cause a similar vibration.
This drive shaft is a direct-fit replacement for the 1988-1991 BMW 325iX, which takes one rear shaft. This listing is one shaft.
