WOW. My dealer said 405 over the counter. This is silly. It only cost them 150. Just a little mark up.

Id try staitening it, with v blocks in a press, if you cant , any viable machine shop can get it close! just tell em to cold bend it and shrink it where needed, with a brazing torch head (spot heat) dont heat the whole axle it will anneal .staighten crankshafts that way or peen it... JH

I was just as shocked when my local dealer told me 721 + Tax=829 (Cdn), I ordered aftermarket from Rocky Mountain and with the exchange it came to 466. I will have to pay some tax here on that as well and they shipped it US post so the brokerage fees should not be too bad. Worst case scenario, I can't see it going over 550, almost a 300 dollar savings. I can take that.
