The hardened sleeve 2596 didn't appear until 1911 with the tapered end driveshaft, where the pinion gear is held by a nut and cotter pin, instead of the pin rivet arrangement.
The Driveshaft has a hardened end step that the roller bearing 2890 ran on (not sure how, probably case, it would be easiest). I'm assuming that it was deemed much cheaper to make a separate sleeve, harden it and just press it onto the end of the shaft rather than this method, which I can see there being some problems with, especially fitting that rivet.

Slight change, had to change the lock screw 2586 (a bit too short).

Doesn’t the Universal Joint run against the bronze thrust / bush in the earlier units?
