    Just remember that if you have it shortened you will have to have it balanced.

    Thanks guys. I found a local shop that specializes in this. He said he can take care of it. He was a little worried looking at the existing shaft as it looks to be a home fab job. He said he'll spin it before trying to shorten it. If it's way off balance he'll use another used shaft to make the right length. Always learning here!
