Product Description
The BD DIESEL 1041241 7.3L Power Stroke Flexplate is a premium performance replacement designed for use with 4R100 and E4OD automatic transmissions on Ford trucks, vans, and SUVs equipped with the 7.3L Power Stroke diesel engine from 1994 to 2003. This heavy-duty flexplate is CNC machined from quench and tempered steel and is 1.5× thicker than the factory unit to resist flex and fatigue under tough towing and performance conditions.
Engineered with integrated counterweights and balanced to better than OE specifications, this BD Diesel flexplate absorbs the stresses of heavy use while improving overall drivetrain reliability. The black oxide coating resists corrosion and prevents hydrogen embrittlement, helping ensure long-term durability. Designed as a direct bolt-in replacement, it fits both OEM and aftermarket torque converters for versatile installation.

FAQ
Why should I upgrade the flexplate on my 7.3L Power Stroke?
The factory flexplate is thinner and more prone to fatigue under heavy load or high-torque conditions. The BD Diesel flexplate is thicker, stronger, and better balanced to handle towing, racing, and performance use.
Will this fit aftermarket torque converters?
Yes — the BD Diesel 1041241 is designed to fit both OEM and most aftermarket torque converters with 4R100 or E4OD transmissions.
Is the black coating more than cosmetic?
Yes — the black oxide finish helps prevent corrosion and reduces the risk of hydrogen embrittlement that can weaken the steel over time.
