Last weekend I started machining on the old coupler so it will accept a new splined steel coupler which I purchased on ebay. If this idea does not work, i plan to fabricate (machine) a new coupler from steel instead of using another oem cast coupler.
Have a great day!

I think someone had mine loose, to slide it forward and replace the rag joint, then didn't replace all of the bolts? Whatever, it was / is a mess.
