This is a well known issue on E39 applications as well as they share the same engineering design solution. Steel BJ in an aluminum arm. Oh well it beats a screw in one!

Thanks StephanVA!

I feel much better that it wasn't just me being a mechanical dunce

After a decent run up the still under construction I35E from Lewisville to Denton, the new BJ is still in place in the replacement carrier.
