Thanks for the smart a** answer. But to answer your questions.. The shafts are 1.5" stainless steel. Reconditioning the shafts... I have taken them to my local machine shop to make sure that they are straight. They have found no problems and are electro-polishing the surface.
When I asked the question about size I was just wanting to complete my order I have been workon from a supplier. Thanks...
