While mocking up the drive line in my boat it seems that I have some miss matched components. Heres what I know I have a Glenwood bellhousing, a 5 1/4" long tube and a 5 5/8" short tube-coupler that matches the mount on my V drive what I cant figure out is how my guard/long tube is going to fit into my bellhousing(its much smaller) and doesnt appear to have anyway to mount, any ideas guys(pictures are great) thank you for all your help

If I'm understanding you right, you may be missing the "Hub" that bolts to the bellhousing....Here's a pic......

In the picture second from the bottom (http://www.rexmar.com/page310.html) there is a large ring that mounts to the bellhousing and secures that end of the tube. You generally have to drill the bellhousing for it. As there are many size tubes and many size bellhousings something standard may fit or you may need to build a custom piece.
The rings I have fit a 5.5" od tube.
