Abstract
An example gear arrangement includes a gearbox shaft and a journal shaft. The journal shaft establishes an opening that receives an end portion of the gearbox shaft. The gearbox shaft is configured to rotate the journal shaft. The journal shaft is configured to selectively rotatably couple with another shaft. The journal shaft is allowed to align to the bearing surface while the gearbox shaft allows for misalignment between the accessory and gearbox drive.
