I replaced the PTO shaft on my '46 2N last night. When the 4 bolts that hold it in-place are slightly loose the shaft turns fairly easily by hand. When I tighten the bolts as little as finger tight, the shaft will not turn. Is this normal? I am assuming that it is from the bearings being slightly compressed as I tighten the bolts but before I put the fluid back in the tractor I figured that it would be a good idea to make sure that I am not doing something wrong or that something is not lining up quite right.

Might loosen the bolts on the pump and then turn the shaft. let everything find a new center, then tighten bolts.

| Check the length of the new one against the old one. If new one is longer, grind the end down.

| Yes, I have a gasket on it. It is a brand new shaft as I decided to upgrade to a 1-3/8 shaft.

| | put a blob of grease on the end o fthe shaft.. stab it in pull it out.. grease smashed flat? / gone from lack of clearance? if so.. :) I might grind 1/16" of fthe nd fo the shaft. sounds like a chinese clearance problem to me.. :) another test.. cut a gasket using yours as a template. cut it out of some thick gasket paper.. exhaust gasket paperboard.. put that on. if it turns fine.. um.. I'd bolt it in tight... :)

| I put the new shaft beside the old shaft and the difference in length, if any, could not be seen by just looking at them. However, I took some 1/32 gasket paper and cut out a gasket using the standard gasket as a template as you suggested. I installed the fabricated gasket along with the gasket that came with the new shaft and still had the same problem. I then cut out a second gasket and installed it again with all three gaskets and it worked. The additional 1/16" in gasket material was what it required. Thank you for you suggestions!
