I placed an order for the Idler Shaft assembly. Part 504177. The package came all torn open. Packaging missing but parts look to be OK. Looks to be complete but not 100% sure. looking at the pic below did I get what I ordered?

Hi Cincin.! Do you have the key - named a short key, but it is about 3" long. Couldn't tell from the photo. My advice - Call Shopsmith Tomorrow morning and tell them your situation:eek: !

The key is held in place with the idler sheave and is part of the package. You can see the key in the picture that was posted under the Sheave post.
