Matt, if you can find me a set of rockwells for a few hundred bucks each, I'll buy 'em just to add to my axles-from-which-to-choose rack. Huh. I'm even half-serious about that! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/scared.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />

I've been wondering for years why folks didn't take the good parts from the deuce, trash the heavy not-so-good parts, and build a hybrid axle from the remaining bits? Keep the axles and everything from the inner kuckles out... and sell/scrap the housing and top-loader. Toss in the center-section of your choice, and connect the knuckles with tube... for my taste, I'd want to rework the outers for disk brakes and a reasonable bolt pattern, but many folks are happy enough forcing pinion or driveshaft brakes to function as service brakes. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/ignore.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/scared.gif" alt="" />

File this one under: idle thoughts not likely to ever happen. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />
