Custom axle shafts
Posted: Mon Sep 18, 2006 11:16 pm
Is there anyone in OZ that makes up axle-shafts to custom lengths/spline counts? Has any-one had any made over here, or is importing from U.S.A my only option?

You can subbi the work out if you can sweet talk. I looked into doing this a while ago - worked out around $150-$200 a shaft (full floater). As long as the gear cutting mob has the right sized tool it should be cheapish for the hobbing. The steel and heat treating is nothing major. CASH is your friend.Woop wrote:Is there anyone in OZ that makes up axle-shafts to custom lengths/spline counts? Has any-one had any made over here, or is importing from U.S.A my only option?
