The right side differential axle shaft has some serious wear from damaged original seals and also a good amount of pitting. The pitting is on the differential side, the grooves from damaged seals are on both ends. I searched on here and saw some recommendations for "Speedi-Sleeve" and "Redi-Sleeve" - but I can't find one in the correct dimension to use on the differential side (I measured the diameter to be 1.0515" and the closest I can find is 1.60") .
Should I slap some JB Weld in the groove, smooth it out, and give it a go?

Alternatively, does anyone know of a source for a new right differential axle shaft? I don't see new right-side differential shafts listed on TM's site, just the left.
The left side was slightly worn in both places but it smoothed out nicely with some crocus cloth - the toothed area of the right side might clean up the same way, but I believe there is zero chance the splined area will clean up enough to make a good seal due to the depth of the groove and the adjacent pitting.
