Warren, when I spoke to Warwick about it he was uncertain about the VK power rack, saying that Doug Pearce did the last one and to ask him. I know it's easier to get an intermediate shaft to suit the Laser uni but that leaves me with $400 worth of unusable u-joints and I'd still need to source the lower one. So I'm just trying to see what I can do with the parts I have - at least for now.

Bruce, I've also got a spare (that's the one in the pictures) so I might get someone to attempt an "Aussie Mike", and if they stuff it up I'll, I can always get the intermediate shaft machined down as you've suggested.

Can anyone recommend a good "machinist" in Melbourne? I've no idea what they're even listed under in the yellow pages. SE suburbs if possible.
