I looked for the spud then remembered we had converted this one in the shop so this is what we did then - added a spacer we made to the original shaft behind the end piece and this is the tool I had made
Wanted to circle back and close out this thread. I ordered an extended shaft nut off eBay but had a machining problem so had to wait until we got that sorted out. Installed it and everything seems OK. Hope it will extend the life of the Bendix. Have an extra extended shaft nut if anyone has a similar problem.
