That's kinda what I thought and also what I am working towards. I found this site:
http://gearsmade.com/ which looks extremely promising, but probably also pretty expensive. I will let everyone know what I find out. I don't have one out of the car to send to him right now, but I plan to pull the rears out of my car this weekend.
It would be very cheap and easy to 3D print the plastic part out of Nylon 12, but I am not sure yet how to join the plastic to the splined metal part. Also, it would have to be SLS which is pourous, so I don't know how that would behave over time in the grease bath (maybe fine). I read through the previous thread about the idea of making these from a few years back and seems like there wasn't much of a conclusion. If anyone has ideas about how to join new plastic to the metal part, let me know your thoughts.
