The groove in the short shaft looks so clean and sharp that I wonder if it is machined into the shaft. Up close it looks like a perfect v-groove of consistent width and depth around the entire circumference. No rust or pitting in the groove either.
So, would a new short shaft have a smooth seal surface or is there indeed a groove machined into it?
I know I can get a speedi-sleeve if it is supposed to be smooth.
