Zusammenfassung:A motor vehicle 10 includes a hydromechanical powersplit transmission 11 having a hydraulic pump motor unit drive shaft 44 and a gear 76. The shaft 44 and gear 76 are drivingly connected together with a spline connection 160. The spline connection 160 includes an internal spline connector 161 and an external spline connector 162. Each spline connector 161, 162 includes a spline portion 166, 174 and a generally smooth portion 168, 175 adjacent its spline portion. During assembly, generally smooth portion 168 of the internal spline connector 160 engages and guides spline portion 174 of the external spline connector 162 to longitudinally and circumferentially align the spline portions 174 and 166. After assembly, the spline portions 166, 174 and the generally smooth portions 168 and 175 are radially aligned with and engage one another to form a rigid driving connection.
