Another question: if the transfer shaft was a hexagonal shaft, would it be possible to use a thrust bearing? I would guess that you would have to make a sort of adapter, to go from hex to circular, but I'm not sure if it'd work.
My team hasn't had any problems using standard thrust bearings that fit around the hex profile.
