Tom's / KA Axles?
Anyone ever hear of Tom's / KA Axles? They used to be based in California but moved shop to Idaho. Supposedly they're made by Foote who make a lot of companies axles and have tighter tolerances and a greater level of heat treating than most and are 100% made in the USA. They don't appear to do any advertising which is why there isn't a lot of info out there, but from what I can find they are one of the best axle suppliers available.

yeah, was having axle bearings/seals done and the shop showed me the pitted/scored stockers. The local suppliers were out of the usual Sierra or Yukon axles they normally use for OEM replacement so they offered the supposedly better Tom's KA axles for the same price to get me back on the road. Just trying to gather some more info about them.
