...but I thought I remembered the tell-tale sand-casting finish. Maybe not. If they are not cast iron, are they cut from billets, or forged to rough shape then final machined? You got me curious now..... I must admit, I wondered how in the world someone managed to weld a forged steel axle shaft to a cast iron hub.
By the way, I, too, am an aerospace engineer. Doesn't mean I know everything, though, that's for sure....
