Did some more looking.. seems like the bolt hole in the input shaft has a LOT of slop allowing quite a bit of play. I think that would contribute to the bump noise. Seems they don't sell just the input shaft or I'd try and replace that.
Blade bolts and gear box bolts are tight..
Going to look into the run down pto thing, thanks
