Been doing some repair work on my Series 3 109 recently and there's a hole in one of the crossmembers that I always just assumed was for a PTO but on closer inspection I'm not sure how that'd work. The hole in question is the one on the left in this picture:
Now, this hole doesn't align with where a PTO would bolt onto the back of the transfer case and according to the following diagram the PTO shaft goes over this crossmember not through it.
The only thing I can think of is if theres a PTO driven through the transfer case which then is split to a forwards and rearwards shaft via a box that locates between this crossmember and the one immediately behind it?
Someone clear this up for me please!
