Some of those shimano hubs with oversized alloy axle the cone is integral to the axle - so you'll need the "axle kit"
LikePart 1 on this diagram:

If I was at work, I could check availability.
If madison don't have it, you probably can't get it - the only solution is to buy another hub to strip, which could easily be cheaper anyway.
We often buy hubs for fhb/ axle assemblies for this reason.

Just a quick google search, 775 axle kits, probably could help with other cones too.

The front axle usually wears at half the rate of the rear, so you might find a clean and grease is adequate.

Hi thank you all for your help.
Solution was whole new front hub to strip and whole rear axle assembly available from Biikeparts slightly cheaper than SJS in the end…..
