There are a couple things that haven't been mentioned in this thread that you probably should check.
- Transmission shaft is held back by the transmission front bearing seal retainer. If the retainer is installed backward (unlikely this situation), the shaft can move forward. A failing bearing could cause the same. Either way, this should show as end play in the shaft.
- PTO shaft held forward by its bearing. The shaft could have moved back in the bearing. This probably would not show as end play. Inspect the shaft (outside the housing) to see if more is exposed than before. In '47, the shaft was staked to hold the bearing. Later a snap ring was added.
- There is a pilot bushing in the back end of the transmission shaft to support the front of the PTO shaft. Check it for wear. If the two shafts aren't held in strict alignment, it will generate force that tries to disengage the PTO.
