The history of my M41 is that it was supposed to have come from a P1800, and the OD unit that came with is certainly a J-type, indicating that the M41 is of a later type.
I just looked closer at the spindle-shaft that I have and you're correct that the first number could very well be a 3 instead of a five. The top part of the number has been worn off some how, but now the bottom part looks more like a three. So it does seem that I have the right spindle-shaft.
I just tried again and I can't get it through however. Should it go through by a strong push of the hand, or does it take some judicious rubber-mallet pounding or something? Also... is there a way to tell which end is the slightly smaller by the part-numbers stamp on one end?
Thanks for the info, it's fun learning how one of these works.
