    I wrestled with that prop shaft all day and couldn’t get it to relent. It was dry in there so maybe there’s corrosion? I’m soaking it in PB Blaster now. Someone, in the last 97 years, took the time to clean out the grease from the gear case and never refilled it. As a friend of mine likes to say “The enemy has been in here.”

    Thanks, Tubs, for the guidance and for the parts display. Very helpful. -DK
