Hi manchester1! Thank you for the suggestion, that's my plan B.I have some 5/8 chromoly stock I was going to use if I couldn't find a shaft except I was going to grind a flat spot on both ends and use collar locks instead of clips.It will be awhile before I need the shaft, I just finished stripping the frame and stuck front forks is whooping my butt! My hat's off to you gals and guys who do this constantly!! Mark
