Supposed to fit fine, does it put any additional stress anywhere it shouldn't be with the splines being a little shorter?

Thanks Don, as easy as the 24 stock chopper got to 76 I am excited to try this 26 with tricks it may not be as durable or as pretty as the hydromotive but it looks fast

you have to be careful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! some guys will drill them to far, and dont leave enough splines. if there is only 1" or less of splines it will crack, or twist your spline. you may get by with it for a while, but it will twist or crack off in time..JMO
