Steering U Joiint

[Vortech]

I am installing a 1972 C10 auto column in my truck and want to use the original intermediate shaft without the bell grease coupling that came with the 1972 column. I have pushed the column as close to the dash as I can in order to have gut room. Can I use this : https://www.borgeson.com/Steel-3-4-36-X-3-4DD.html

to couple the lower column to the upper intermediate shaft If I cut down the intermediate shaft to the double D portion indicated by my finger? Thanks,
