solid PTO shaft on 3 pt auger

I found an auger on a three point hitch that has a solid PTO shaft. I've never seen this on others, all had a sliding 2 piece shaft. Is this OK? It seems that the pto shaft has to change length as the auger is raised and lowered.
Any comments are welcome.

the shaft can also be "torqued" so it's jammed... ie - no amount of PB Blaster is going to fix it.

cheers!
