Just looked at their site, they have both throw sizes listed for a 4 & a 4 1/8, but not 4 1/4. Shouldn't be much of an issue to produce a larger dia throw on a 4 1/4 though.

We don't use the aftermarket (Eagle) shafts with any rod journals other than the 2.000" pieces.
I believe Eagle doesn't make any shafts with the OEM journal size (2.139") with the exception of the 4.000".
The problem I can foresee is getting the 4.250" arm in with the 2.139" journal, never tried it, but I don't think it'll go without hitting water! Could be wrong, but I don't think so?
Thanks, Gary in N.Y.
P.S. Every one of these Flathead builds really should be done on the 2.000" journal. They simply run/perform much better! The 2.000" rod journal crank would definitely be a bit lighter, this would be the right direction to go in, lighter.
