I would suggest reading the FRC manual...I can't find any rule that would not allow it (unless it was too big or heavy; i.e. made the robot violate size and weight rules). Cost? Pass. Readily available? Pass. Looking at the specs, that axle would probably need to be trimmed, and some cheeseholing would be desirable, but those can be designed around.

Please note that this is based off of the 2008 rules and therefore can't be used to determine legality for the 2009 or any other future game.
