Laydown main-shaft

Forums

Hi, I have a good laydown gearbox. Can anyone tell me the length of the main-shaft I need for use with a Dominator please?

 

Thanks Keith

I think that the shaft you need is the one stamped GT165.  The one stamped GT175 is for singles.

Single boxes have a shorter mainshaft, 8 5/8'' whilst twins use an 8 11/16'' mainshaft. These are interchangeable. As a result of this difference in length, the twin mainshaft protrudes from the sleeve gear showing a gap before the clutch splines, the single mainshaft does not.

So the difference is actually 1/16".  I am amazed that it is so little..
