DIY PTO Shaft Help

I just got a John Deere No.5 Sickle Mower and one half of the PTO shaft is missing. This will be powered to my 1949 Allis Chalmers WD. So far this is what I think I need. The Square tube hole is 1 1/16" so I assume the tubing is 1" square tube. The coupler to the tractor is a series 4 6 spline 1 3/8" coupler. I cant figure out the other coupler and u joint I need, the coupler that is welded to the square tube.

TSC has SOME PTO parts.

For more options GOOGLE "Ag driveline parts. The tubing you need is called "driveline tubing"!

1.0625" square or Is the shaft 1" X 1.0625"?

Once you get the parts be sure you understand "driveline phasing" before welding them together.
 
Some of those are not a square but a rectangle so be sure to check that while measuring for pieces you need. A piece of pipe will work for no more load than is on a mower if things are sharp and set right if dull nothing will run it well.
 
Rear section of #5 mower driveshaft included a slip clutch(item 12 is clutch, item 9 is jaw & item 8 is nut)

Sorry I misunderstood when you stated ""I cant figure out the other coupler and u joint I need, the coupler that is welded to the square tube"". Tractor end is solid square shaft not tube. PTO coupler with square tube should be easier to locate or make.
 
No worries. I did find the yoke the has the spline for sale on Agri Supply but I cant find the receiving end that gets welded to square stock. The splined part is Series 4 so does this mean the other part of the yoke / u joint needs to also say series 4?
