Chromolly or 300M custom Axle stub shafts?? where can i get them made?

[rooinater]

Basic run down, the weakest link of a subaru rearend is the CV shaft cups and the stub axle that goes into the rear diff. Since it appears i'll be hanging onto the subaru longer than i thought i need to look into getting some custom stub shafts made, a small run of 2 to 4 depending on the cost.

As long as i'm keeping the car i'll be converting the rear shafts to EA82 cups to try and eliminate breaking the cv's before i need to find custom cups...

Where could i find a machine shop, company or individual that can make some stub shafts along with a stronger bolt to retain them?? just trying to get quotes and depending on cost i should be ready to buy later this month or next. thanks, here is what they look like.

Jantz should be able to help you.

i'll look into them. the major problem is a bolt goes through the center and the stubs are hollow.

Personally i would go with Jack at CTM. It will be pricey, but it will be bulletproof.

if it's too pricey i'll just find a IFS toyota rear axle and swap it in... since the subaru already has 4.11 gears in the diffs... i just need a stock ifs toyota rearend to swap in to meet the same track width. i just don't feel like putting a solid axle in the rear...

Ok then. It IS too pricey. I guarantee you that.
