Okay, I'm following you. But if the hub spline is 22 mm and the input shaft spline is 22 mm and the input shaft has 6 mm not worn, why can't you access all of the 22 mm on the shaft and get the 6 mm?
I reread the original post, and I think I now understand where my confusion lies. I ran to the basement to measure the spline length of the shaft.
shaft splines 24mm
hub splines 22mm
hub spline engagement is 18mm with 4mm of hub hanging off the end of the shaft.
A 6mm spacer would position the hub completely on the shaft splines. The hub would now be positioned so that 2mm of the shaft would now protrude out of the hub. So the answer is yes, you should be able to use the 6mm of shaft spline.
The hub would now be very close to the shaft seal, and I wasn't able to see or measure that gap. It would not be a good thing for the hub to contact the seal. These are approximations, not perfect measurements. Smarter people than I have already done accurate measurements and know what works.
