Default Re: Drive shaft lock pin

You peen it to set usually. There should be no movement around the turning shaft splines. But yet most are sitting in the housing when you open it up after 80 yrs. Mine was not. Install one. drive it and 10 yrs from now when you have to pull it apart, then... Lot of pins sheared i guess, collar still there.


All the force is put on the connecting splines, not on the collar placement. Just pinned in place. A bolt will work if you feel confident it'll stay bolted.
