Isn't the "hockey stick" The shaft that comes out the snout of the
transmission different between the type 3 and the type 1?. I had to
change mine because the little dimple in the shaft that the setscrew
goes into was on the bottom of the shaft for the type 3 and on the top
for the type 1. Or did the guy that sold me the transmission sell me
something strange?
