Your cart is empty.Vehicles with automatic transmissions have a flex plate. The flex plates connects the engine and transmission. Most flex plates are made of a thick piece of sheet metal with bolt holes for the torque converter and teeth for the starter. The job of a flex plate is to allow for expansion of the torque converter as engine RPM increases. The constant expansion and contraction of a flex plate over time can result cracks and/or shearing of the flex plate. A damaged flex plate can create serious (expensive) damage. Broken flex plates can not be repaired, they must be replaced. ATP flex plates are made of high quality steel and contain the correct bolt hole spacing and ring gear teeth just like the original part to ensure long life and durability

Looks identical to OEM. It didn't spin freely from the tourqe converter after installing so I had to loosen the bell housing bolts so I could line up the bolt holes. Made an awful noise when the starter engaged. Rear main seal began leaking oil. Replaced it with a used OEM for 1/3 the price. Everything works as it should now.

No quite sure what the deal is with this part!It works BUT has sounded like it is binding/grinding when starting the truck ever since it was installed and after about a year, has gotten so bad that I usually crank the engine by hand before engaging the starter just to be sure it doesn't bind up and break something. (BTW it's NOT the starter that is the cause)

Good price, lasted less than a year . Ended up buying another same company/brand , as I really couldn't find another. Nervous about the newest one ... So far so good..

I thought I could get away with buying an aftermarket flex plate like this one for my Tacoma. Wrong. This plate lasted 21 months. Unless dropping your Trans is something you enjoy doing bi-annually.. Buy oem.

Product came in as described. It worked great. My sons truck has never sounded so quite. He has noticed less fuel economy, because he is not afraid to press the gas and feel the torque. The other flex plate was almost completely broken.
