Post digger driveline

Told this site about a driveline for my post hole digger that the Yoke was not in working order. A few of you mentioned that one could be found in your area. Remember that this yoke was a 7/8 inch universal joint and I could not find them in the area. I went back to Washington to see family and went to the local place that would have stuff and they did not have it either. So I thought as I walked around the place about what I could do to make something happen. Got to an area that had 1 inch receiver with keyway and setscrews. Bought one of them and went to my pop and asked what we could do with it. We cut the bad end off and welded the good piece on using a shaft to remain true. Now all I need to do is of course wirewheel the rust off and paint it. Then clean the gearbox shaft off, fit the halfmoon key, and see if it will work. Thought I would update you all on this. Have a great day.
 
Oh, and my dad moved both of the universal joints around and said that it seemed to him that all it needed is some grease in them. So I plan on changing out the grease zerks and regreasing them.
