I posted a last week that I had ordered a PTO shaft from YT to replace a twisted one on my Ford 960. The part came yesterday. There are a couple of things that I wanted to check on before I try to put it into the tractor. First, the bushing (is that the right term for the bulkier part that seals tight where the PTO emerges from the tractor?) is quite a bit shorter than the original design, and secondly, the rough surface shown in the picture below. I assume that since that isn't turning, it shouldn't make a big difference, but could it increase the chances of oil leakage?
I really want to get the new piece in and see if it works and the 960 can get back up and running, but thought I'd do a quick check here first to make sure everything looks compatible. Thanks!
new piece on the left / old on right
