A reaction device, comprising:
- a head of a torque generating device comprising:
- an output shaft including a drive connector;
- an external guide bushing engagement surface formed on the exterior of a portion of said output shaft;
- an external male spline formed on the exterior of a portion of a housing;
- and
- said housing portion formed around a portion of said output shaft excluding said external guide bushing engagement surface and said male spline;
- and
- a reaction arm comprising:
- a reaction bar;
- and
- a body portion including an internal female spline and a guide bushing;
- wherein said body portion of said reaction arm wraps around said head of said torque generating device, such that an internal surface of said body portion engages said housing portion of said torque generating device, said female spline engages said male spline, and said guide bushing engages said guide bushing engagement surface.
