Both the 3/8" AM Hubs and the 3/8" McMaster shaft are currently out of stock.

We would like to ask the CD community what other teams suggest in terms of powering the rollers. Our two constraints are: 3/8" shaft DIA and quick. Ideally, we would like to use a live axle setup.
Joe got you set up with shaft, if you need hubs order anything from AM with a smaller bore, and we'll gladly bore out and broach them for you.
