Anyone have a set of LS1 axles?

Like the subject says i'm looking for a set of LS1 axles (cheap). I just need the axles themselves, not the housing or anything. Also they MUST be out of an LS1 or 98+ V6 car that didn't have traction control (i.e. no ABS reluctor rings).

Thanks!

The LS1 axles are about 1/4" shorter than their LT1 counterparts. I need them because I am now running LS1 rear brakes on my LT1 rearend and without the shorter axles the rotor isn't quite centered in the brake pad bracket like it should be. I've used some shims (washers) to get everything to line up but I would rather do it "right" since brakes are kind of important

Also the "hat" on LS1 rotors is also hair thicker (~1/16") so I suspect the LS1 axles will have longer wheel studs to compensate. As it sits now with the LS1 rear brakes and LT1 axles the lugnuts don't engage the stud quite as much as they used to. Its probably fine but since I need the axles anyways...

BTW if I get a set of LS1 axles you're welcome to my LT1 axles. I'll trade you a six pack or something for them. I'll have three (well four actually, but one is bent).
