[QUOTE="CedarRiverScooter, post: 473158, member: 15465"] +1 on cut & splice. I would just add that heat shrinking the sleeve on would add some strength. A woodruff key is pretty easy to machine in too. Probably not germain to a jet ski shaft, but years ago we cut down a Ford 9" differential for use in a sports car (Sunbeam Tiger). The half shafts were cut & resplined. Bad advice from someone, said to use them as-is without heat treat. After about a year I had them out for some reason & clearly they were twisting. I had to pay thru the nose to have them induction hardened. But at least that worked. [/QUOTE]
