: My recommendation is to get rid of the odd ball shaft. Use a 1/2" shaft. You will need to bore out the plastice housing so the shaft will fit through. We welded a sproket to a thin plate of aluminum and then screwed this to the removeable black plastic "top hat". If memory serves correct, I think we put a bushing on the back side of the housing to hold it centered to the shaft. We also had a bushing between the sproket/plate and the shaft.

We did something similar to this and it worked fairly well. Once again Chief Delphi proves to have all the answers...
