you can see how we solved this problem. The short output shaft goes halfway into our timing belt sprocket in the frame. I explained it a bit more in one of the posts in that thread.
Can you elaborate on how the bearings were set up to support this multi-piece output shaft? Did you encounter any binding issues with 3+ bearings in such a small place, and was anything special done to prevent binding? Or was there sufficient slop in the hex broach to prevent this?
