Thanks again | | | | | Joined: Mar 2001 Posts: 1,181 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Mar 2001 Posts: 1,181 | OK I had a '60 with a SM420 trans and it had a two piece shaft with a carrier bearing just infrom of the x in the center of the frame.
Oh and BTW if you look on the shop manual, youwill not find anything on the drive shaft! Look under propeller shaft!
