Looking for some reccomendations for a machine shop in brisbane that can cut splines on some 4340 axles.

Have the axles already and all the dimensions, just need a good machine shop.

2H power steer belt

Can anyone give me a brief rundown on how to tension this thing?

I can see the tensioner puller and it has a bit of threaded rod doing through behind it but it doesnt push against anything.

It looks like something is missing.

Its in a 60 series.
