Hey man, like I said in my previous PM....I really don't have the time to do this for you... nobody did it for me, and I wouldn't expect them to either.
I'm just trying to help you get this right by telling you what components are needed, but its your job to get all the parts and make it happen.
For the axle go to Advance Auto Parts, Autozone, or the like. They offer lifetime warranties on the axles, so buy from there that way you have a reciept in case something goes wrong. Its invaluable to have the ability to trade in old axles for new ones, believe me.

Any machine shop will do the machining work for you. its not like I have a divine access to the only shop that will make a spacer.
Just flip through your local Yellow Pages or search online and find a machine shop and give them a call, it only took about half hour or less for mine to be lathed down and bored out so its a quick job.
Just make sure when you remove your old axle(s) before getting the spacer made, remove the extra bearing race thats on your passenger axle now as a spacer and use that to be remachined. Then trade in your old outer axles at the auto parts store for a core exchange when you buy your new ones.
As far as the fasteners go, you should have six of the longer ones already since you already have an extra bearing race installed as a spacer. You might need to get some for the spacer on the drivers side if you use one, in which case just take one of the old bolts to a fastener supply shop and tell them you need the same bolt, only longer.
Get all those parts and you'll be set.
Eggman40, sorry if I sounded like I singled you out in this post man....I really don't mean any disrespect or anything by what I'm saying.
I understand that you and Sphinx ran that setup on your cars, but I took your advice before I did my swap and I ALSO ran that setup on my car....and it failed! Thats the point I'm trying to make ultimately. It also failed for numerous other owners who used the identical ST185 outer axle without a spacer and blew out axles over time, and found out the hard way like me. Thats why I'm being persistant that others should play it safe and use a spacer setup with their E153 hybrid axles.
