Abstract: A torque division gearing assembly having an intermediate shaft drivingly connected with the output drive shaft is provided with a pre-fabricated bush means permitting angular positioning of the intermediate shaft in its torque branch gear train. An intermediate shaft gear for driving the intermediate shaft is connected by key means to a bushing element positioned concentrically about the intermediate shaft and rotatable relative thereto. The bushing element is provided at its opposite end with a gear teeth connection for interlocking with a corresponding gear tooth ring formed on a connection bush. At the other end of the connection bush, there is formed another gear teeth ring of reduced diameter for meshing with a corresponding gear teeth portion formed on the intermediate shaft. The two gear teeth rings on the connection bush have different diametral pitches, preferably amounting to one, in order to permit angular adjustment between the shaft and gear without disrupting the drive connection therebetween.
