My new shafts arrived yesterday from a supplier that I won’t name just yet. They do not fit. The problem is the holes for the hold down bolts. My bolts have a short shoulder, and the old shaft holes are larger on the top so the shoulder will fit through the top hole and not the bottom hole (you can not install the shaft upside down). The new shafts were made with both holes the same smaller size.
Since my 235 is pushing 60 I’m wondering if my old shafts are original or has someone modified them. Are all of the 235 shafts made with two different size bolt holes??
