Sorry I don't have a axle. I was just wondering why you need to replace it. the reason I ask is I thought I might need one a few years ago. The seal was leaking and when I pulled it apart the axle had a pretty big grove in it. I just put a "speedy sleeve" on the axle and it worked, gave the new seal a nice "new" area to run on. FYI, the speed sleeve was a lot cheaper by getting one at Carquest. I had them measure it and it turns out it is the same exact size as a speedy sleeve for a 70's Buick (455 c.u.in. I think) front crank/timing chain cover repair sleeve. It was like $10-$15.and worked well. Hope your issue is that simple.

Thanks I'll keep that info for future repairs. I need a rear axle because mine recently snapped off ... completely .... just at the end of the splines. John

OldMachinist……could you post the appropriate pages to R&R the rear axel for the M-610. John is going to post us some pics of his progress on this job. He also has a unique ending for another machine. Thanks,
