The drive shaft jumped (due to a failing wishbone) out of the housing in the motor. I want to order a new part, because it is not included in the new drive shaft. How is it called?

can you describe it better,is it the flange or the axle part or the connecting rod,it is hard for me to understand exactly what part(s) you want the name of.– trond hansenJan 27, 2020 at 12:16

2@SteveMatthews Surely that is the inner CV joint. That looks more like a gearbox/differential than a hub.– HandyHowieJan 27, 2020 at 12:49

@HandyHowie of course. I must have mistaken the bellhousing for the brake back plate but that big drain key is a dead giveaway. Yes, Inner CV Joint.– Steve MatthewsJan 27, 2020 at 12:50

@trondhansen I need the part with the 6 screws– MarvinJan 27, 2020 at 13:43

As discussed in the comments, this is the inner CV joint. Make sure you get a rubber gaiter and grease with the new one. You will likely need to re-use the bolts.
