U-joints appear in 3 locations on the shaft. The first is at the back end, right where the quick-connect slips on to the pto output shaft. This is at the lower right of the picture I posted in response to jm.
The second is the "double cardan" joint. This is just behind the hexagonal "telescoping" shaft that slides through the two special-purpose bearings on the snowblower front mount bracket. These are the two triangular housings at the upper left of the shaft in the picture I posted for jm.

There may very well be problems with the splines and the forwardmost u-joint, but I'm not even there yet!

Well, although these tires were in good shape as far as tread was concerned, they looked real sad. All were flat, but new tubes fixed that. In addition to years and years of scuffing and fading, they had paint splattered on
