Thanks

The 125 uses the welded flange style. "
Sawdustdad" wrote good directions for the removal.
Other wear parts to check are the drivehub on the engine. If that has a slot worn into it, it should be replaced. Also check the rear coupler where the 3/8" nub on the driveshaft slips into. If that is worn off center, that can also wear out new parts faster.
Also make sure you fan on the driveshaft is complete. That helps cool the rear pump.
I can make a package deal price if you need multiple parts.
