MT75 4x4 Gearbox Output Shaft
Quick query on the output shaft on my 4x4 box, from looking at the build diagrams am I right in saying there is a small shaft that fits to the mainshaft of the gearbox that holds the drive flange? If so can this be easily replaced with the box in the car?
Some swine has cut my shaft down to fit the earlier hex rubber doughnut rather than getting the correct front end of the propshaft and the newer thinner doughnut. As the hex doughnut is knackered I have had to replace it with the newer style and matching prop but the shaft will not centre properly as the gearbox spigot has been cut !
So can this part be replaced easily or do I fear the worse and the gearbox is coming back out again...
Thanks
Dan

Ok great, I'm assuming you need to remove the driveshaft flange first? The only reason why I ask is I've seen photos of the transfer case with the flange and shaft still in place.
The bext question is where to get the shaft from? CTS wouldn't sell one unless the gearbox went to them and they fitted (which I can understand) just means I have to take the gearbox out which I'm trying to avoid and the journey to them!!
