Broken axle stop

The stop around the center pin is broke in 2 peices in my l110 semi floating axle.
The peices are broke clean and I'm sure it would be nearly impossible to find a replacement part. The peices fit together nicely so I am considering having it welded. The gears look good and suffered no obvious damage. I suspect the part is cast iron, so it would need to be welded accordingly. Any thoughts from you guys about my options ?

Not sure what you are referring to, but just about every day someone is pulling one of these rear ends to replace with a faster ratio Ford 8.8, find the part or a whole rear axle shouldn't be hard.

Last I knew Terrell had a very nice ready to install axle for sale.

I am trying to keep original as possible, I know I could swap axles but I've already bought all new brakes, bearings etc. Part I'm talking about is the piece that the axle shafts butt against inside the differential.

I have seen this and used it with mixed results, have issues navigating it. Thanks for reminding me of it.

Here is the parts book photo. What item number are you referring to? I just removed my L110 axle to swap with an 8.8. I have yet to get the other axle out so I am unsure if any of the parts will be salvageable yet.

That is called the "thrust block", item 19.
What I was trying to say, many are pulling IHC axles to replace with the Ford, so there should be a fair supply of IHC axles to get parts or whole rear axle.

Yep, thrust block is it, 19. Is 38 a gasket? Mine had no gasket, somehow retained lube though.
