1950 8n pto leaking

[Water Pig]

Good evening.
I recently pulled the pto shaft and replaced 703
9N703, D9NN703BB
Oil Seal (power take off)
715
9N715BC
Bearing Assy. (PTO shifter and shaft)
735
9N735B
Sleeve (power take-off)
754
9N754
Snap Ring (power take-off shaft bearing)
4129
9N4129, C5NN747
Gasket (power take-off cover)

the sleeve i replaced did not fit snug and continued to leak. so I ordered the 1 1/8" sleeve and it is obviously too small. so will anyone give me their thoughts about this.

Did you replace all of those components individually, or did you purchase them already assembled, ie, as a unit?

I replaced them individually,

Did you heat the replacement sleeve to shrink fit it to the shaft?

Nope, didn't even think about it. so just heat it until it fits? I know that is a simplified question but I have no experience in doing that.

I've seen it done a few times, probably 20 years ago, and figured that the cost of buying the entire shaft w/ it all assembled was a real deal. Someone else w/ mote recent
experience than I have will need to tell you how to do it.

Bruce,
my hubris convinced me I could do it just buying the parts. I like getting the complete replacement shaft better every day.

Thanks so much for the opinion.

Come complete with everything, even the PTO cover.
