Re: Threaded rod through roller bearings

Team 1882 is thinking of threaded rod as well. We think we may fit threaded rod inside 1/2 od tubing to make a long bushing that the wheel rides on (dead axle). This will fit inside the 1/2 id bushing and lock the side rails with nylon lock nuts outside. We could modify this to be a live axle as well. This will be the first time we try this so it will be a wait and see at this point. Good luck with the 2007 season.
