Default shortened axles and housings?

Ive seen where some widen the tracks but was wondering if shortening them was possible also?...I have a 1/16 scale body (newbright Ford svt raptor/Bass pro shops) that id like to use by
shortening an scx10 chassis and axles..Has anyone done this before?

Yea..no doubt ill have to make shorter custom links for a smaller wheel base..Was wondering about the axles themselves and how to narrow them.
