Hello-
        I purchased an used input shaft for a diesel van.
The shaft is a bit rough/worn on the tranny side of the
surface the throw out bearing rides on. The yard I got
this from (with a bunch of other diesel parts) thinks
the tranny it was from was run without a TO bearing
for a bit. I was wondering if this surface needs to
be a harden surface or can I bring it to a machine
shop, have it welded and then lathed back down to the
correct diameter?

        If it's not fixable, does anyone have a spare
input shaft they are looking to get rid of? (need to
check how much it would cost to get a gas input
shaft machined down to the length of the diesel shaft
though)...
