Hmm, I did not know that. I know the driveshaft is different because of the wheelbase length but I didnt know the final drive was not compatable. Any idea what is different? Thanks

The McMaster-Carr stainless Belleville washers were identical dimensionally to the originals. I installed them in the same orientation with some marine grease on the stem and on the  rotating area after cleaning the rust out of the detents. Smooth as butter.
