Good Morning,
I have a TO30 and bought a Ford 5' finish mower. The mower came with a short PTO shaft for a newer tractor. I need a longer shaft and would like to have a ORC on it. Has anyone done this before with this system? If so, where did you get the shaft. I have not included pictures, but I can send them to someone. The overall length is 25", the round piece on the end of the ford tractor is 1" diameter. It is 6 spline and 1 3/8". Please let me know if you need any more information.

Thanks,

A while back I bought a sickle bar with no shaft. I was able to get a complete shaft, joint and coupler at Tractor Supply. I just cut it down to the length I needed. Expensive stuff tho.
 
So, I tried to cheat got a overrun coupler to extend the PTO. it would turn the mower, but the tractor kept dying. There were still a space in between. Since there was a space could this make it so that mower died?
