    the idea is to get a solid piece of steel about the same thickness as the toyota shaft but a little taller for more strength. drill out the sides of bar and weld in a nut or 2. plate the top and bottom and place the 1/4 plate on the end to double shear it. prototype will be started as soon as i recieve the stock shafts and buy the neccesary plate and hardware. most likely grade 8 whatever fits inside the toyota bushing :) let me know what you guys think
