I copied the following off HAMB. This guy runs a shop in PA that drop forges axles.
I dont have a URL yet but his EMail addy is at the bottom.





Just wanted some imput on axles. We currently cover the 47-61 Chevy axles . , 53-56 Ford 3" dropped Axles , and our PRECISION AXLES . We have been working on two new axles, a plain generic (kit) axle that has the ends, tube and pads not welded so you can build your own custom axle, and an axle for the 48-52 Ford trucks. Just wanted to know what the response would be for the 48-52 axles. It's a bunch of R&D to do them, but we have been getting more and more emails about them. Interested parties let me know so we can move this axle to the top of the R&D list.Regards-WORM

this guy sells his axles (for 53-56)on ebay for $250

 

Correction: They are not forged, I was thinking of their high priced rod axles.
Here is the URL

As much as I understand the joy and love of old vehicles, please do not refer to these works of art, these restorations of history, these psycological stabilizers as toys.
It has taken me many years to build the confidence of my wife that the collection of historical relics resideing out back are not toys.
(P.S., sometimes she comes in while I'm on line and reads over my sholder.)
