Custom Chromoly Axle Shafts?

[rubicontrail]

Does anyone make Chromoly axle shafts for not-so-common axles. I will be rebuilding the front and/rear of the pickup as part of my restoration and wouldn't mind getting some chromoly shafts if they were available.

The front axle is a Spicer (Dana) 25 and the rear is a Timken 51540.

Only issue would be time, custom axles normally take 4 weeks and sometimes longer to build...

And just a suggestion, get a spare set (yeah they should last forever but even the best part may/will fail if it's an extreme use situation) when possible just incase they decide not to build them anymore (hey it could happen)....

Time and Blanks.. If there aren't blanks the proper lengths then your SOL...

Yeah, especially Timken... nearly impossible to find parts for it. A beast of an axle setup but quite rare because Timken quit producing them to focus on their bearing business.
