<p>Was just in there myself; now I know why that nut has to be
torqued to 150lb-ft IIRC. I don't see the large flat washer that
goes under the nut, did you lose it?</p>
<p>Can't help with the shaft/nut size; I remember thinking it looked
very similar in size to the nuts on the front axle bearing shaft.
If no one can supply the correct answer, you could use a caliper
and one of these:</p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Hi all,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I was having a great day in the car
yesterday until the flange coupling at the end of the
overdrive parted company with the overdrive. The castellated
nut had backed off and when I hit a cattle guard too fast the
impact jolted it off with a great noise of the prop shaft
flopping around. So where was the cotter pin you ask. Hmmm??
Well the flange took some damage to the slots and the last
couple of threads on the overdrive shaft took damage but
otherwise all looks okay. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Would anyone know the size and threads of
the annulus shaft so I can find a dye to fix those threads. <o:p></o:p></p>
