Can I install a oilseal part nr (950 200 Oil seal 30x52x7) instead of the block off plate in the rear of the propshaft and dont use the blind plug in front of the propshaft and use the propshaft as a hollow see through shaft in combination of a constant speed propeller with a push/pull rod through the propshaft ? Or does the Model 3 propshaft have any drilled holes other than the ones in front / rear witch will cause oil to drain through the shaft without the plugs in place ?
Thanks

The version 3 propshaft has an oil gallery drilled into the splined area of the shaft to help oil flow from the inside of the shaft to the slipper clutch. If the end of the shaft was left open, oil and crank case pressure would leak out.
Also, the version 3 propshaft is shorter and does not protrude past the roller bearing at the crank case side. If you put a version 2 oil seal in this position with the version 3 propshaft, it would not seal the shaft and you would have a prolific oil and crank case pressure leak.

Oh shoot ! :(
So I need a model 2 propshaft ?
Well in that case. Is exchanging the propshaft a demanding job
Requiring special rotax tools ? And / or, does anyone have a model 2 propshaft or gearbox ?
