I'd find a round tube that will fit over the shaft and drill holes through it to fit the hole spacing between the 2 shaft ends. Bolt one end with a decent grade 5 bolt but see if you can find a soft bolt or pin for the other side to act as a shear pin. Some people have recommended having shear pins/bolts on both sides. Option is to check with the jack manufacturer and see if they have ready-made parts or, if not, what they recommend to use.
