Sorry to tell you but the intermediate shaft must be replaced. That shaft goes from the column thru firewall to the steering gear box. Not hard to replace. Remove bolt at steering box then use a screwdriver or pry bar to slide shaft off the gear box. the shaft will slide into itself in that plastic coupler. Now under the dash near firewall remove the bolt holding shaft to steering column. Again pry shaft off column toward firewall. Back under the hood pull shaft out of firewall. The intermediate shaft cost $271. here in Detroit metro. Go to junk yard. about $35. A Durango is the same shaft. Just make sure there is no play at the joints before removing.
Blade adapter from a MTD or Yard Machine seemed to fit the keyed shaft. Center bolt is 3/8" with 24 threads per inch. My issue is the shaft on the Predator is 1/2" longer than my original Yard machine, Briggs and Straton. So I either need to cut the shaft off, or raise the motor on a half inch thick spacer plate to get the blade at the same height it was on the original motor.
