I dont know about other suppliers, but Mid-fifty states that there are several manufacturers and the splines are different. They suggest to order the regulator shaft along with the handles.
I bought new regulators & handles and no problem.

Thanks I guess that'll have to do. I ordered a bunch of stuff at once and forgot those apparently. How is tear down on the regulators? I haven't looked at that yet ?

I bought complete regulators so no experience with changing just the shafts.
