ABSTRACT:
A drive connection between an engine and transmission has an internally splined flywheel drivingly connected to the engine and an externally splined driven member connected to the transmission and engaging the flywheel spline. A retainer ring includes a tab member which is disposed in a slot in the flywheel to maintain the spline connection. The tab has an area which is deformable after assembly to engage a recess formed in a wall of the slot to resist relative rotation between the retainer ring and the flywheel.
