I'm well aware of what is involved. This ain't my 1st rodeo.
Shortening the housing isn't all that technical. I could get that done locally.
As a journeyman pipefitter W/18 years experience I think I could manage to shorten the housing & keep it square.
Where does one get shortened axles @ a reasonable price? I don't need anything super heavy duty.
What would really help is a list of doner vehicles.
