Re: Van door motor

The shaft on the van door motor looks like it is hardened, but is is not. It is pretty easy to mill a keyway slot or double-d on it and cut it to the length you need. As an alternative, if you have limited machining capabilities, try using a "trans-torque coupler". In this case you need to find the appropriate size for its shaft diameter.
