On the 1872 I am working on all of the rear end mounting holes were wallowed out especially the front support bracket holes. They were slotted from wear about 1/4 inch. If that is the case the rear could be rotated enough to miss align the two shafts and cause excessive wear on the couplers. Might be something to check.

Everything bolts up to the rear end housing. Even if it fell out of the frame, all the shafts would still be in place, and in the same alignment they were in. The front driveshaft, is the only spinning shaft that would be affected....
