The second main shaft photo has a different configuration. It's 8.27 in long, has 16 helical teeth and 30 synchronizer teeth at it's front end. However, the width of the shiny, tapered surface at the front (for the synchronizer) is much narrower than on #48-7017. It's only 2.280 in. wide.
QUESTIONS: What is the correct part number for the mainshaft in the 2nd
photo and
What year and model Ford transmission does it fit?
Thank you, Jim

Hey Jim ..... Sorry but I don't have the answer you're looking for. Hopefully to help with your inquiry, those two shafts are "INPUT SHAFTS", or MAIN DRIVE gear. They are not "main shafts". The main shaft is the shaft that fits-in behind the input shaft, upon which the second gear and synchronizers fit and slide. The main shaft will also have the six splines for the U-joint at it's rear end.
