Sorry to disappoint you, Rusty (actually, not sorry
at all {:>)).
Finally got the gear box out on the aircraft
today and the drive shaft slide right in like - well, you know. No
binding at all. But, I did find out a unique signature of gearboxes
converted from 2.17 to 2.85. You end up with 3 oil drain holes
{:>). The 2.17 does not have a drain hole on the gearbox spacer but the
2.85 does. I am sure I am to plug the center hole of (the rear drain hole
of the 2.17). But, to make certain I have sent Tracy and e mail to confirm
it. Better than finding out in the air I was wrong {:>)
