wasnt it just an ear welded though?
use, tune, gearing, HP is probably more of the problem.....
and driving style (related to long gearing). Will run with high RPMs from here. May generally tow in 5th, it made nearly no difference in economy - though I did run I think 62-63 in 5th as opposed to 68ish in 6th.
Thanks Brett for sanity checking me and looking at rockauto. Order placed for a USA Standard Gear input shaft. Fingers crossed.
Wondering if I should get something better on a slow boat for when that twists so I have it on the shelf.

rock auto doesnt list an input shaft for my truck, thought it was same?
I would expect it to be the same. Does rockouto show you truck at all? cross reference for the USA Standard part I bought only shows 2500 & 3500 trucks 2007-2018.
I believe all neccessary bits will arrive tomorrow.
oil
input
input bearing
front countershaft bearing just found on amazon (cage bent with 3 jaw puller)
Slap shit together, I think I will need to check countershaft shim clearance with the gold plated jig since I'm changing a bearing, oil it, install it.
Mike, you good on that tractor fetch for me tomorrow? I put a caliper on the trailer yesterday and safety wired all the bolts. None of the others were loose at all.
