when we built the winch pto shaft assembly, we could not find a yoke exactly like we wanted. the one that fit the winch shaft also had a keyway in it. i was concerned that the keyway would weaken the yoke. i turned a collar to a snug fit to the od of the yoke, pressed it on and welded it to the yoke. indexed the shear pin hole 90 degrees from the keyway and put it together. the collar was prob overkill but better to over build than under build.

I have my winch out and there is no hole on the shaft the goes into the winch for a shear pin like in the M108.
