If i had his number still i would he called me once when i first looked at doing the conversion and i lost his number

Can pm it to you if you like?

That would be great pm away please

I also Emailed Grubb about a shaft but received no reply so did my own thing
Fully floating is my preferred method anyway :cool: Some bits ready for heat treatment:p

What material did you use ?

I had two made from a Salisbury axle. I like the idea of a floating shaft as well as the ability to remove a failed one with the transfer case in situ. I used a SIII hub flange to mate to the MXA drive flange, but haven't had the new 'shafts' treated yet...so it's still untested.

Nice work.

Matt.

Nice work indeed...may I ask how you went about doing the internal splines ?
