While it seems it might fit, you don't have a DD (double D) shaft. The box shaft is a D (think of the flat on the shaft as the flat on the D). DD has 2 flats.
Why do you need expensive aftermarket parts?
Yes the new steering shaft is 3/4 dd and the box shaft is what I thought was a 3/4 30 spline. So I ordered the correct conversion joint. Yes the shaft on the box has a flat spot/D shaped. Do they make an aftermarket joint that is D-shaped on one side and 3/4 DD on the other? I'm installing an aftermarket tilt that has a 3/4 DD on the end and need to connect to steering box. Not a cheap way to connect this that I know of.
