+====== Rear Pivot Shaft ======
+The shoulder on the shaft sits flush with the outside edge of the engine. \\
+The pivot shaft is not a press fit into the bore but there is some tolerances involved. \\
+One the backing plate is removed, the shaft may not easily be pulled out. \\
+You should be able to remove it by simply hitting the opposite end with your hand or rubber mallet (after wiping any rust /debris off the shaft). \\
+The shaft should turn freely once the retainer plate is removed but there is no "play" as the tolerance is close to an interference fit condition. \\
+The shaft is not tapered but there is a shoulder on the shaft and there is a recessed shoulder on the engine itself. \\
+Below is a picture of the clutch side of the rear engine mount and you can see the machined shoulder on the inside. \\
+There is no bushing in the hole, it is just machined through.

+On the shoulder of the shaft there are two "flat" spots 180° from each other. The retainer plate has two small tabs that fit into the flat spots. \\
+The shaft can still rotate a small amount until the shoulder on the shaft comes into contact with the tab. \\
+The backing plate has two tabs that engage those flat spots on the pivot shaft and that connection locks the shaft from rotating once installed. \\
