Aye - shortened sierra ones - search on here for that.... Various places will supply new to your specs but can be rather dear.

STM (now aries) modifies existing ones for around £60 . GB Engineering does brand new shafts for around 110 each. They'll even do
'unbreakable' ones for a bit more.

If you're near South Wales at any time, you could go to Bar Props - Andrew there has an excellent reputation for making quality shafts (for
motorsport) at very competitive prices.

You just need to shorten the shaft by cutting off the length required then get the splines rerolled on the end.
Sounds dead easy... now then, were are them rollers......
