Can anyone identify this shaft?
Does this look familiar? I know it's not CMP but I was hoping the general knowledge of our membership will solve the mystery...

Here's another
It's obviously a wheel brace, and when I first saw it I thought it may be for the track adjuster for a carrier, but it's too small.
It is also just too small to fit the wheel nuts on a CMP. However when I looked closely it is stamped GMH and there is a part number: 594729. Anyone have any ideas? Is it modified conventional pattern, or perhaps even for an artillery piece such as 2 or 6pdr?

Interesting
It could be. It's fairly lightweight. Interesting also to notice every other spline on the large end is lower.
I do know there were some wheel bearings for an early Fordson tractor in the same area I found these, so it proves there are tractor parts there.

Pto?
If it is a PTO shaft there would have to be a 1/4" hole through the splined end to secure the implement shaft as there is no groove for a quick couple. The high low "key" type splines are quite common for mounting a a drive gear to a shaft.

Keith
The small end runs a bearing in another shaft.
The big spline is for a sliding gear or dog, which can engage another dog either way. (lock the shaft to another shaft at the small end, or lock the shaft to the gear running on its self) The smooth bit is where a gear runs. the little cuts are for oil. I assume there is a hole in the splined end to bolt a flange onto , which would also have a seal track on it. This would be a shaft from a transfer case. The slightly shiney area of the small spline is where the bearing sits on the shaft. The bearing will be located in a housing by a circlip, and the act of bolting the flange on will stop the shaft from floating. Are there any numbers on it? Does that help anyone?
