I'm willing to take your money. It's a Waterloo part number and it has a waterloo foundry casting number. It has much larger bolts then those little allen head capscrews. I've seen the Case one, also, and it's definitely not Hub City crap, either. By the way, the one you pictured is not the same one linked before. It has set screws. Doesn't make a lot of difference because neither one is near strong enough to hold a 150hp + tractor.
You can carry on all you want, but while you may find this hard to believe, this is not my first day on the job. I've ridden this rodeo a couple times. I've used the Hub City ones, which since we are almost betting, I will almost bet come from England, and they are almost made from good enough quality steel to work at maybe 100 hp, but not to hold up to what amounts to a guaranteed overload, since the intended purpose is to use a tractor which is too big to run through a 1 3/8 shaft.
Those are 1/2-13 g8 bolts in both versions. I know the Deere is one forged piece. I suspect the CIH is also. The Hub City one is two pieces welded together, not very well.
You will get efficient and thoughtful service from Jundi.

I recently went through a quick hitch 'transformation'. Most of my PTO shafts needed 4" added to them. Adding a PTO extender would have been a silver bullet. I did some reading since I dont know much. I read that if the extender is out of balance, not machined just right, it could put stress on the PTO mechanicals at the tractor end. This gave me great reservation about using one.
I brought all my PTO shafts to a local drive shaft shop. They removed the shafts, and installed new shaft stock cut to length. I also needed to buy new PTO shaft covers. The bill from the driveshaft shop for doing 4x shafts was less than the cost of one new PTO shaft. For PTO covers, I purchased 'universal' ones from Amazon and they are working well. I think as long as you are getting at least 1/3 overlap you are ok. My shafts were overlapping like 2", the shorter the shaft the worse it was. I dont think an extender will make it any easier to hook up, still have to fuss with it.
