I would, but I don't have access to a decent lathe anymore.

i just looked and the alston on is not bad...450 bucks! You really can beat that if you dont have a lathe. I dont know why they dont put marks for measureing axle length on the center plates? Oh well i guess just subtact about a 1.125" from pinion center line. I also like my homemade one that uses a actuall carrier to center off of and not a plate like theres. Good luck.

I have actually used the axle in one case to line it up. Car still running and going straight.
