Output shaft for driveline:


 Output shaft without gears:  Now I have to design the driveline.  I will be making a housing for this shaft and several bearings.  This will attach to the rear swingarm.  The u-joint inside the rear swing arm.  I will probably machine off the splines on the inside of the shaft to ease in the assembly.

Output shaft with gears:
First taking the transmission apart:  I need the output shaft so I can make a new drive line to attach from the transmission to the rear swing arm.

Driveline:

I have wanted to get the driveline built for the trike:  And finally I found a reasonable option.  I found this transmission on ebay and will be able to use the output shaft to help build the driveline from the transmission to the rear swing arm.  I actually did do something in May and that was find the transmission and get it ordered.  Progress.
