Default Where to get txt stub axles?

Do you guys know of an affordable place to get a set of 4 steel stub axles for a txt? I need some for my project and the only places I've seen them sell them for way too much money. I believe the part number is MS3 in the txt manual.

please and thanks

hey man, thanks for the tip.

My problem with Tower is that they want $18 flat shipping to canada even though my order of 4 axles would be worth about $3 in shipping... That seems to me like an awful ***-pilaging for small parts

I've missed out on some good deals from Tower before because of this nonsense.

Ah, didn't realize you were in Canada. Sounds like Tower is a bit ridiculous with their out-of-the-states shipping prices.

Yeah they sure do love to gouge us Canucks on the shipping . Maybe they're trying to discourage cross-border shopping somehow... I dunno.

they charge that much for shipping because of canadas new import laws and other crap, even if i ordered them and shipped them to you it would be at least 15 for ground service. sorry,

Default No more at Tower

I am reviving this old tread because Tower shows these TXT stub axles as "Discontinued". Great Hobbies in Canada no long list them either.
Does anyone know of a US mail order source?

Thanks
