Will keep you posted Richard, e-mailed down drawing yesterday afternoon, already had a response from
https://www.moserengineering.com that yes indeed they can make the short side. I'll be shipping the broken shaft to them today.
I will ask that they put the info on file so we can reorder as needed.

Cheers
