Default Custom adapter shafts?

Anyone know of anyone that can make one of these, out of one piece then hardened? Basically it goes between the 4L60E and the Range Rover transfer case. And no, nobody makes a thing for this swap!
This one was made from a 4L60E slip yoke, with the end milled off, then the inside bored to an interference fit then TIG welded.
The end result after a little fight foot action with the new 6.0...

On a side note, the engine runs like a top, apparently as the old 5.3 never broke the damn shaft!

Martin,

RCV can make just about anything. Give them a call.

Thanks Andrew.
I have actually installed their CV style axle shafts in someones Jeep. Not sure if they can do internal splines, but will call them tomorrow for sure!

Cheers

On my TJ LS/4l60e swap I bought the new main shaft from Novak. They might be able to help. Alternative would be either a 231 or 241 transfer case?
