Stripped PTO
Bill,
I did as you asked on the 1995 SPI that had the stripped out PTO which wasn't spinning the drive shaft. I took the PTO off replaced it with a spare I had and inspected the shaft and replaced the bumpers. The ski is back operational. I also grease it every time before use as you stated.
The shaft looked OK for now but I started looking on EBay to find a better one. I looked them up on the web which sells factory parts and I noticed that in 1994 the splines seemed to be in a straight line then in 1995 my splines look like they are straight but raised slightly around the middle torward the end of the shaft kinda like placing a quarter up against the splines which go into the pto it looks round. I was looking at a very scetchy diagrams so I thought I would ask the expert I could have not seen it correctly.
MY QUESTION: Can I put a 1994XP drive shaft fit into my 1995SPI if so do I need to change the PTO?
