    I have not seen those axles that you speak of. None of the rebuilt axles I have seen and used were pinned that I saw. The plug did not go beyond the snap ring groove. The ones that sheared were really bad. Bottom line, the quality that we once took for granted is disappearing in favor of cheaply built parts.

    The ones I described were done by a machinist out here. I believe he was located in Tracy, CA. All I remember was that his first name was Steve. I met him a few times at a friend of mine's Corvette shop.

    Do you know of any decent USA-made new replacement axles?

      I have used new International axles last year that were very good, but I didn't like the cap fit and ended up using used GM HD caps on them.
      If used GM axles are in the 185-200 range but soft they can be hardened and reused, they are not drilled or faced. The common rebuilt axles are good as long as they pass inspection which should be before they are packaged and sold.
