A few years back, one or more T parts vendors sold them new.
Chances of finding good enough used are slim.

Thanks, I have tried Snyders and Langs without any luck.
I was hoping that someone might have some NOS ones that they would sell.

Re: WTB Axle shafts for wide track
Hi Matthew, I just saw your message.
The axle shafts are each 2 inches longer than a standard model T axle shaft, but I am not sure how long the standard ones are.
At the moment I have not torn the old rear end apart either to measure the old ones but I know they are very worn from what I can see when I removed the outer bearings.

Re: WTB Axle shafts for wide track
If you need measurements I can measure my old set this weekend. I have the old ones from our 14 wide track . They were producing new ones at one time that my dad replaces his because of the keyways being bad at the wheel hub.

Hello Capewake:
I would remove the existing parts for these measurements, on the off chance that you may encounter variations. I have noted this here previously, and photos that responded showed 1/4" OAL differences. Too costly a project to have this kind of boo-boo happen.
Regards,
Scott

Re: WTB Axle shafts for wide track
Thanks for the advice and for offering to measure your old set.
I have been advised that the wide track axles shafts were between 33 1/32" and 33 3/32" in length.
If anyone has a pair of NOS that are will to sell please let me know, thanks.

Re: WTB Axle shafts for wide track
If your still looking for these,
I have one or two sets of the reproduction wide track axles
available and could probably help you out with those.
