What is a keyed shaft?
A keyed shaft or Keyway is method, based on a machined keyway in shaft, to attach something to the shaft and associated bore. A fitted key is inserted into a slot that is machined into the shaft. Although a machined keyway does result in a weaker shaft, it has it's applications. As in a lawn mower engine shaft. Theoretically the key will give way and save the shaft if you hit something with the blade. The negatives of a keyed shaft are that it can be deformed over time and result is a loose drive.

Remove the torsion bar in a dodge ram?
Jack the front end up and support it w/jackstands. You can either use a torsion bar unloading tool or rent a ball joint press which is what I did, and place it around the crossmember to where the keyway or "porkchop" is located. Apply presure to the keyway by screwing the balljoint spacer as if you were tightening it. This will relieve the pressure off the keyway adjustment bolt so you can unscrew it and take out the keyway bolt keeper. Next unscrew the ball joint press and the keyway will fall lose. Then you can pull the torsion bar all the way through to remove it.

What effect has a keyway on the strength of a shaft?
1. This is due to the stress concentration at the corners of the key way and reduction in the cross-sectional area of the shaft. It, other words the torsional strength of the shaft is reduced. 2. In case the key way is too long and the key is of sliding type, then the angle of twist increased. So it is actually assumed that the strength of the keyed shaft is 75% of the solid shaft.
