I have spares. If I need anything I have to order it. But would certainly loan a neighbor a PTO shaft if they were in need…

There's a local machine shop here that keeps some shafts in stock, but there are so many variations that he has to order many of them.
When that guy finally retires, I don't know of anyone else locally that actually repairs them.

My property is big, but I don’t think it runs into Illinois.

IIRC, they need 1/3 of the shaft length engagement. Many users don't pay attention to that... I don't understand the reason for the weird shaft shapes. They seem DESIGNED to waller out and fail.

I got the new one today and got it cut to the right length. It took me three try’s to cut it short enough. I didn’t want to get it to short. The new one is very similar to the old one, same manufacturer I bet but is much heavier duty. Larger u joints and heavier and larger shaft. It barely fits in there but I got it.

Know our driveline specialty shop carries all types of ag shafts, u-joint and couplers. That’s where the tractor shops send their work.
