www.differentialeng.com/Home.htm and a host of others offer them too, but we've already done ALL of the leg work(been to each company and received quotes). Skip all the BS, call USA 6x6, and ask to speak to Daniel. Pretty much all of the sites above sell the axles within $100-$200 of each other, but USA 6x6 is still cheaper considering all axles are already rebuilt, stripped of the military paint, and primered. The major difference in price becomes apparent when you get into the options(brakes, lockers, narrowing, etc, etc)! If you're going to drive this thing on the road, you need wheel brakes. I don't believe pinion brakes are street legal, but even if they are... they're not safe on the highway and when used at higher speeds regularly they will cause pinion bearings to wear prematurely. A pair of rebuilt/stripped/primered Rockwell front's from USA 6x6(one with the center spun 180) will cost $2400. A pair of Detroits and installation will run $916(uses new safety wire on all internal nuts just as they did when removed to prevent backing off). Bolt on 1ton wheel brakes will cost $800 per axle($1600 total) and installation is included. You can get "2.5ton rated" brakes, but they are $100 per axle more and will require you to run 20" diameter wheels. The steering arm USA 6x6 offers is made by WMS(Wagoner Machine Shop, they do top notch work) and costs $150.
