The cut won't be square, but by putting that split collar on there it will provide a perpendicular shoulder for the end play. The PTO becomes part of the crank when it's bolted on. So what's the difference if the end play is set from the PTO face or inside the PTO on the crank. Hope I'm making sense here.
