Did you get the drive shaft you wanted?

I did- thanks. I ordered it from England. It was "gently used," ....until now.

Did you get one too Hooligan?

I saw there are actually two drive shafts too not just the bevel drives.

Yeah, the one I put in my Roadster came from a Touring model. The Final Drives are different though.

OK, I've got to chime in. When I installed the 2015 engine in my 05, I apparently lost the stupid spring, and didn't even think about it until I already had the swing arm in. Been running WITHOUT the spring for a few months now, no noticable problems, YET. I did a lot of thought about the purpose of that spring. Shaft slid all the way back, towards the final drive, "good" ? all of the splines being used. BUT would that allow some "wallowing" of the shaft on the front end with the U joint? Doesn't seem to. Time will tell, and I ain't about to rip into it, just for that silly (I hope) spring.

Cootertwo your drive shaft needs that spring in it to keep the coupler at the back of the engine tight to the shaft and bearing. Please take the time to refit it as soon as you can. You will be glad you did.
