Re: splineshaft coupling in 360 drivetrain.

James has sent me the coupling and it looks salvageable. So many thanks to James, and this thread can be closed.

Re: splineshaft coupling in 360 drivetrain.

Hi James,

Rusty is ok, as long as the splines aren't too damaged. I can sandblast it clean and rebalance.

Howmutch do you want for it? (incl shipping to the netherlands)

Niels.

Most likely I'll be collecting a 'new' prop shaft this Friday. So it looks like I won't need to import one from the UK.
