I really don't think you could use that shaft without shortening it a lot then re-splining it (expensive in my neck of the woods). Could you not...
I live out in the middle of nowhere but there's a guy local to me who built a RPU in the 60's and he still drives it regularly. Pretty cool build....
When you said it broke I thought that it was just where the fitting screwed in for some reason. Wow, ya that's just a little bit worse. That...

Yes and you have to also take into account the angles of the torque tube in both cases. The quick change lower shaft is 3" below the original...
Oh wow ok, that's good to know. Thanks Marty! I think I could probably make up the 3/8" at the coupler when I drill the pin hole position in the...
