The driven shalt (14) thickness is uniformly tapered in the spline area, while the drive shalt (20) has a constant thickness through part of the spline area, and then a uniformly reducing thickness toward the unloaded end. The teeth of the external spline are crowned with the peak toward the loaded end of the drive spline (26). A flat is located at this peak.
