Thanks for your help in trying to remedy this problem.

I really wish I knew. Hardness tests are fast and cheap. Material reverse engineering takes time and money.
I have reason to suspect that both the shaft and the carrier have enough carbon in them allow them to be hardened fairly easily (no carburizing, no cyanide powder, etc.) but don't know for sure. I certainly don't know the exact alloy which would help folks with access to ovens and whatnot.
Banebots, can you help us out here?
