axleshaft rebuilding / upgrading - CANADA - best options?

Needing a good company to rebuild my axleshafts and upgrade them for higher power.

Everyone tends to recommend TheDriveShaft Shop, who are supposedly great and provide a quick turn-around (so I'm told), but unfortunately for me they are in the USA, and I'm in Canada and right now our dollar is pretty weak + there's all the shipping expenses.

Ideally I'd like to have a company in B.C. or Alberta do this, but I have never heard of any and am a bit worried as their experience with 4G63 parts would assumidely be quite low being Canada never saw the 4G63 EVOs.

I guess the next best thing is Washington state, Montana, Oregon, Idaho....at least not too far away.

If anybody knows of a good company, possibly with some experience working with 4G63 parts, I would very much appreciate the referral!

Thanks

I'm shooting for around 500-550 pump and 650-700 e85. Not that even at these levels the EVO axles wouldn't hold up, but to save myself a bit of money and being that a rebuild/upgrade is never a bad thing, I bought from a user axleshafts that had torn boots and damaged joints - basically given to me for a case of beer type of thing, so they must be rebuilt.
