Greg is great. Depending where the OP's is located, Andy Kohler in Williamsport, PA can do it as well.

I just shipped a '32 axle to Greg and was dumbfounded when it cost $50 to ship it to his business. Round trip would have been $100. Outrageous.

As tight as you can, bearing in mind you want to end up with a split pin hole lining up. 100lbs ft plus. (I don't use a figure, just v. tight with a 30" bar.)

If you have a gap between the wishbone mount to the axle, it can be shimmed.
