Hi all.
I have a pair of axles in with Dutchman to have one end of each re-splined for my Subaru engine swap. They called today to ask for a reference for the Subaru spline. I don't have a Subaru axle available - only the tripod from inside the CV cup (which I mailed with the axles), and apparently that won't do. They did say they are able to check specs against an identical previous order. Would anyone on here who has had their axles machined to Subaru fitment by them be willing to divulge their name / order number as a cross reference? Help much appreciated! James |

Talk with Travis. He told me he'd keep the spec's on my 1st order with them. I wonder if they have some new guys there. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)

Thanks Kent. Will do. Do you know if it makes any difference to the spline if the gearbox has internal or external output shafts? Mine are external.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) The shaft length may vary but you'll determine the length. They ask that you cut it to length for obvious reasons. Carborundum blade cuts those shafts like hot butter. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |

Spline count, height and width the same for both?
