Someone with an early Parts Book could see if a one piece shaft was available early. (Mine is the reprint of the Late Model A/Model B/Model 18 period.)

FWIW, the Jan. 1, 1928 parts price list shows P/N A12178 as the upper shaft and A12249 as the intermediate shaft. That's not to say that the very early cars didn't have a one piece shaft, but if they did it was changed before the first parts catalog was printed.
