I was wondering why did cub cadet turn the 5/8 driveshaft down to 1/4 on the welded flange rubber coupler end of the shaft where it goes into the cast coupler on the hydro on a 149? I noticed that the shaft is supported only by 1/4 to 3/8 inside the cast coupler on the hydro This isn't much support if the shaft is supposed to stay centered Always the holes in the cast hydro coupler gets worn and egg shaped and the shaft is off center Why didn't cub cadet leave the shaft at 5/8 and don't machine it down to the 1/4 that cub did? The shaft would be supported better and stay centered not wear as bad if left at 5/8
