I have a snow thrower (pull behind snow blower) that I used behind my 2N Ford. T got rid of the Ford and got a 300u this summer, and had to make a few changes for the snow thrower so it would hook up. I didn't try it at that time, but I did yesterday and the PTO shaft to the snow thrower is too steep and bangs bad. Does anyone know of any contraption that I can buy, or suggestions on how the end of the PTO shaft at the tractor can be lowered 3-6 inches, or the snow thrower end raised 3-6 inches?
Thank You for reading and any helpful suggestions are welcome.

I would start by contacting Hub City Gear. They have some PTO ag products that might work. Their email contact form is below. Their on-line catalog doesn't seem to be as complete as their printed catalog.

you could put a double u-joint on one end of the shaft. or if you cant find one that works you could put a sprocket where the shaft hooks on the snowblower and another the same size on top of the other one with a chain connecting the two and have the shaft connect to the top sprocket.

Mattd's idea is good.
A double joint can be found in the center joint of mid 70's Cadillacs. it is a constant velocity system with two regular u-joints and a ball/socket centering system between them. A drive shaft shop (or four wheel drive shop) can put this together.

Another reality check could be your joint phasing.
all shaft assemblies must have the u-joints aligned so that the shaft has the cap holders on the same geometric plane. This results in the yolks on the ends also having the same orientation as each other.
Regular (single cross) u-joints cause serious accelleration and decelleration every revolution when working at an angle. If they are in phase, they cancel each other out. if out of phase they are nasty, and will breakup from viabration.
Both joints on a shaft should be running at about the same deflection angle.
Good luck, JimN
