It just falls off.
Anyone know what rag joint I need for the CPP box?
Also, on rag joints in general are they just hand tightened on the spline shaft or are you supposed to use power tools and is that maybe why it seems too big because I need to really bare down on it to make it tight on the shaft?

There are two different sizes of splined shafts on the steering boxes. I don't know which one CPP uses but it sounds like you have a box with the small splined shaft and a rag joint for the large splined shaft.
I just tighten mine with hand tools.
