Hi Paul;
     The contents of the front housing are three (3)
bearings...two (2) of which are 1-1/4 I.D. RADIAL
bearings, I would imagine the third one must be a Thrust
bearing.

     The output shaft is 1-1/4" DIA.

With this further information on hand, how about an
engineering review (synopsis)?
                                Thank you
                                       Butch Diaz Sr.

Not good. The shaft is definitely marginal and will fail sooner or later.
Should be in the range of 1.75 to 2.0.
