Re: Steel axles
Mike,
Are you looking for new or used? If used, try Googling 1441003-1. The salvage yard in Deer Park has them for $125. BAS has this for $160. JT Evans carries this for $200. I’d want an NDT inspection on used axles. With just a cursory look It appears that Yingling has the best price on new axles.

Re: Steel axles
It appears we have a selection of materials for axles. Presently I run solid aluminium axles with no issues [touch wood] ,but curious how much heavier are the steel ones compared with the solid aluminium ones. I recall that titanium axles are also available So the million dollar question is ? Have they been used by others and are they any good.
