Oh that's different Posted by CMyles [Email] (#1126) [Profile/Gallery] (more from CMyles) on Mon, 10 Apr 2006 21:50:47 In Reply to: What I interpret to be movement of the shaft..., Joe98, Mon, 10 Apr 2006 14:15:52 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
Joe98, Guess what, The shaft normally resides so that the end of the shaft is flush with the face of that "splined aasembly". If it pushes in 1/2" beyond flush, that's what's weird. Normally the pilot bearing limits how far the shaft will go in. The spined assembly is the upper chainwheel. Going along the shaft: The tip of the shaft dwells in the pilot bearing then a set of splines fixes the shaft to the friction disk then there is a smooth journal for the seal and lastly the splines that fix the shaft to the chainwheel. By way of the 3 chains, that upper chainwheel drives the lower chainwheel which is splined to the transaxle input shaft. In order for the shaft to push in farther than it should I think that the pilot bearing would have to be set to deep or it has come all apart (not unlikely) and its' inner race is fused onto the shaft. Use a 4" angle grinder to cut the shaft. Wow, this just gets stranger, good luck, keep us posted.
