A propeller shaft assembly for an aircraft engine includes a shaft having a bore extending through the shaft at a front end thereof, the front end of the shaft having an outer surface facing radially outwardly from the shaft and an inner surface spaced apart from the outer surface and facing radially inwardly to the bore. The shaft has a front flange extending radially outwardly on the outer surface, the front flange having a base merging with the outer surface of the shaft. A sleeve is coupled to the shaft within the bore by an interference fit between the sleeve and the shaft, at least part of the sleeve axially aligned with the front flange. The sleeve axially extends from a front to a rear sleeve end, the rear sleeve end axially offset from the engine side surface of the front flange at the base of the front flange.
