yukon axle question

Ideally, you would have a machine shop clamp the axle into a lathe and have coolant flushing the cutting surface. They could also put the chamfer on the edge of the axle. You never want to heat up the spline area, it'll will become weaker than the rest of the axle.

It was my understanding that if you used green bearings that the thrust blocks either had to be removed or were not needed. I took the blocks out of my 742 case with a clutch sure grip. With them in, they were stock axles, the wouldn't seat properly
