    you would need a super spacer rotary table and a spline cutter .most splines are rolled you would needed a custom cutter made for the spline to get the right tooth and root to cut them .alot of axles shafts are under size just under the spline so can not be respline just under the spline.they do this as it is part of making the spline .when all said and done i never done any on my mill its $$ to send them out
