Does anybody out there know of anyone making up or repairing Nadella
halfshafts? I have a couple of broken ones, a pair of standard Nadellas
converted to US U-joints at the wheel and one made up with a slip joint
and 2 U-joints, by a shop in Portland, OR about 30 years ago.

Actually, I have assembled a parts list, which replaces the axle with a
pair of U-joints, a slip axle and a piece of tube. Unfortunately, the
first bid, for parts only, is about $250, less machining and welding.

I do have a pair of serviceable Nadellas with the outer U-joint replaced
by American U-joints (with grease fittings).
