what happened, Alan?  Didn't break or twist one, did you?  How's the old Ford running now?  Last I saw it, you had just fitted a new trans and were getting it dialed in...

My brother James just broke an axle in his '57 ragtop.   The stock ones are very weak.

I would be great if someone could post the dimensions for the factory axles to help others when ordering new ones.

I once ordered an axle from Mosier, and told them it was for a '57 and gave them the length.  They called back and told me my length measurement was off 1/4 inch.  They have the specs in house.  I ordered it by their specs.  Two days later it was on my doorstep.

Not right now Alan.. I will have mine out this summer when I replace them with 31 splines.  If you can wait that long, I will save them for you.
