Re: Steering coupler or Rag joint

all, so I ordered this(https://www.summitracing.com/parts/CWA-52078556) shaft and received it this weekend. I removed my old shaft and cleaned each end up. I did a "dry" fit tonight (no modification) to the jeep shaft. it appears to be about an 3/4" too long. it is so tempting to try to force it on.... . so I guess my next step is to torch (melt) the inside rubber/plastic) to separate the pieces? I do wanna ask what the set screw is for? is it to "lock" the pieces once installed? follow up is I guess that the outer piece is thick enough to grab a set screw?

thanks again for the responses....
