[VAC] Re: Buying Axles

[James Clark <jec1938@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I guess that if you don't need any kind of guarantee/warranty, then you can 
tell them what ever you want... If you are ready to take on the 
responsibility of making it fit, then they are not the only game in 
town.... Check out www.dexteraxle.com and the Torflex rubber mounted 
axle... also the Nev-R-Lube wheels... There are other manufacturers as 
well, but you would need to work with a dealer with a shop that could mount 
the axles... Inland is not the only place to get the axles, just the only 
place to get a Henschen that should be a direct replacement for the one you 
have.... Inland would not have so much problem getting folks to buy their 
pricing, if no-one had ever bought an axle direct or paid for the rebuild 
of old axles... There is a log of aggravation for a manufacturer when they 
are supplying a one of a kind unit that is supposed to be exactly like one 
they built 25 years or so ago... Selling a skid load of axles that are all 
alike to Airstream is a lot easier...

Good Luck in your efforts....
