Good to know, what is recommended for the rear?
Dutchman, Dynatrac, Revolution, and Moser offer US made chromoly shafts.
USA made axles listed below...not a fan of the import stuff, personally.
Dutchman makes their axles in the USA. Even their bolt in replacement shafts are custom made. A simple phone call can have you one around $200 with hardware
Price may change based on the application, material, and/or hardware choices.
