Hello guys, I took my 07 IS350 in for some work and noticed the rubber disc (I assume this is the Giubo) is cracked through in multiple places, this explains the clunking when putting the car in drive/reverse, the dealer quoted me >2000 NZD for the entire driveshaft as they dont have the individual flex discs.

Has anyone found the correct part number or an alternative to use? and will I be able to reuse the bolts that are currently in there?

 

Not much help from here. What I've seen its a one piece drive shaft. With no serviceable ends. Unless you get really motivated.

Here are some references links from the IS-F Forums.

It is totally purchasable by itself, but oddly Lexus Parts Now doesn't list this flex coupler part available for the IS350. However, a member with a 2007 GS350 installed this part with good success.

It *appears Nissan Infiniti shares this same part. Well if you can believe this site. It does list dimensions and applications.

I would assume the part would be interchangeable, even between brands. I'm sure the actually manufacturer of the part made them for all sorts of drivelines.
