I thought the half shafts from Backdraft were beefier than the OEMs bought from NAPA, etc?

The Backdraft web site says original BMW OEM parts so I doubt it's any different and it's 1/4 the cost.

Only for the later cars (RT3s). Earlier cars have stock shafts unless you buy aftermarket. The new ones from NAPA are best value we have seen for older style cars.

I gave it my best shot but the wheel bearing was stuck on and needed to be cut off. I took it to a local classic car shop and she's ready to go. The parts were a direct fit from Rock auto and NAPA for a 1993 325is. Thanks again for all the help!!
