I just got a 1-3/8" replacement PTO shaft, the bare shaft that comes without the bearing cover etc.
It came with two sleeves on the rear end, one which appears to be riveted to the shaft and one that is just pressed on.
I assume that I am supposed to remove the non-riveted, rearward collar in order to install the bearing. But that collar is on so tight it has foiled my usually-reliable puller.
So before I deploy the oxy/acetylene I thought I ought to check and make sure that collar is really supposed to move, and that I am not missing something obvious.
(OK, OK, I was warned. Should have bought the whole assembly!)
