Just how long of piece would you need to do each side of the axle? I know this sounds ghetto, but could you cut up an old axle housing to get the necessary amount of tubing? I don't know if any rear axles would yield a long enough piece for what you need, or be the correct diameter, but hell for that price you could get a D60 housing from highhonda on pirate, then recoup some of your money reselling the left over diff and Cs
edit: or better yet, chop up that D60 you bought from me. That thing would probably yield you all the tubing you need

remind me once again why you need the ID you do?
every pound counts.
If I didn't care about weight I would have just outboarded the springs and ran hummer wheels on a stock 60, not what I'm going for.

Well it will definitely lighten your pocket book
Unsprung weight is good, plus it would suck to build this thing and bend it. Save weight other places.
No weight is good, unsprung is better than sprung IMO.Originally Posted by CRaSHnBuRN
I'm going to keep looking for this size, I'll find it somewhere.

I was just on the crapper looking at Crawl. I saw an ad for a Spidertrax 9" housing for $400. What's wrong with that? I don't doubt that the Flemco 9 will be the most awesome axle known to man, but it looks like you cut it to length and weld on your 60 outers? High clearance, awesome looking, much easier? I realize you want to run your springs as God and jeep intended them in the stock location under the frame, but couldn't you cut into the pumpkin part and weld in a perch? Seems like a lot less headache.

I know just what I'm lookin for
Thunderbird will do just fine.
Why build a kickass axle and hold it to the frame with some arched pieces of flat bar?
