If the PTO did come off an older pre 1960 truck, chances are the gears won't mesh..
around 1960 Dodge put a later model 420 synchromesh in the trucks with a different pitch gear on the input shaft, The best way to tell is to remove the cover on the side of the trans and compare the gear angle. The early pto's had a straight cut gear and later ones have a helical cut gear. I am sure you would not have much trouble in finding someone to trade for the correct one! (I may even have one) Good luck!!!
