WELD THE OTHER SIDE ALSO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! or you will be pulling the trans again. It has been weakened by the flex. Have it reinforced to match. Test the shaft in the repair for binding prior to reinstall.
I have another bushing kit I can line up. Also it is longer because you have to pull out the old needle bearing cages on both sides. Grease it up real good. ( I use high temp CV grease). you can email me directly with questions at bob@tracksidedata.com
^^^ When you remove the old style shaft their is a plastic retainer cap that sits on the end of the shaft. It may have popped out when the guide broke. Since you no longer need the cap that adds length to the upgraded shaft which now must extend entirely through the guide. (the old one was recessed a bit further adding strain to the pivot point). The retainer clip that screws onto the end may have to be flipped, but other than that you should be good.
