Abstract
A transmission and power take-off unit assembly is provided including a transmission, a power take-off unit, and an alignment sleeve and seal assembly. The transmission and power take-off housing both include a bearing surface and locating surface that are machined by a tool having two coaxial cutting wheels. The alignment sleeve enables tighter tolerances for improved concentricity between the bearing surface and locating surface.
