Product Description
The BD DIESEL 1041245 6R140 Flexplate is a performance and durability upgrade designed for Ford 6.7L Power Stroke diesel trucks (2011–2019) equipped with a 6-bolt torque converter. Unlike the factory flex plate that uses thinner stamped steel, this BD Diesel billet machined flexplate is made from quench and tempered steel with a black oxide finish and integrated counterweight, helping improve strength, balance, and long-term reliability.
Constructed from heavier, tempered steel and precision balanced to tighter tolerances than OE specifications, this flexplate is ideal for heavy towing, performance builds, or every-day reliability. Its one-piece billet machined design integrates a counterweight that helps minimize vibration and stress on drivetrain components. The hardened ring gear provides long life and durability under high torque loads.

FAQ
Why upgrade the flexplate on a 6.7L Power Stroke?
Stock flexplates are typically thinner stamped steel that can flex under load. Upgrading to a billet machined BD Diesel flexplate improves strength, balance, and torque handling — especially on towing and performance builds.
Does this flexplate support aftermarket torque converters?
Yes. This BD Diesel flexplate bolts to both OEM and aftermarket 6-bolt torque converters without modification.
Is installation difficult?
Installation is typical of flexplates — it requires engine/transmission alignment and basic hand tools. Professional installation is recommended for accuracy and safety.
