Re: Shaft to flange connection...

The damper plate on the flywheel absorbs the torsional shock loads.

Re: Shaft to flange connection...

It looks like there are set bolt dimples drilled in other locations on the shaft indicating previous issues.

Re: Shaft to flange connection...

Now for the bad news. The rudder may have to be removed to remove the shaft. The keyway and key must be machined to close tolerances. You cant "grind them".

Re: Shaft to flange connection...

The shaft would have to be removed and a keyway machined. I think you need a new longer shaft and get rid of the extension. I'm guessing it was rigged originally and therefore the lack of a keyway.

Re: Shaft to flange connection...

Could be a bad damper plate shock loading the shaft when put in gear.

Re: Shaft to flange connection...

There should be a key in the shaft and coupling. The bolt prevent the shaft from backing out of the coupling in reverse. It's not for torsional loads.

Did someone extend the shaft with a second...
