    OK, another question.....

    What does it mean when the 4th Clutch Hub is "Hardened at the Splines"? While i'm no engineer, I have some experience with metals, and it seems to me that we'd want the whole part hardened? Maybe it's cuz I just don't know how they normally come.

    Hmmm, thats a good question. Im kinda interested in the answer myself. Though, as I understand it, the splines are so small that they are easily stripped and thus why that is the only part that is hardened

    Hardened is just the fancy slang for it, it is heat treated on the splined end which gives it the bluish black color There is a pic I posted in the carnage thread that shows what the non heat treated shafts will eventually do
