Shortening Jackshaft

I am in the middle of installing a NP540 tranny in my '57 FF PW. Because this tranny is longer than the NP420 it is replacing, I need to shorten the jack shaft (shaft between tranny and transfer case) or use a different one. I need to remove 2" from an original shaft. Has anyone shortened one this much?? Is it still a strong joint?? Any help in avoiding problems is appreciated.

Jimbo.
