Neat idea.

You should resize your pics to 800 X 600 so they can be seen without scrolling around though.

Your pictures are never ever, ever the right size.

Wood axle doesn't seem smart?

Wow that's outside the box. Why wood though? Just a shelf queen?

That puts a new meaning to "a splinter in your rear-end".

Awesome fabrication!!!!

Overall durability will be the issue with them, along with adding some unusual flex in the suspension. The biggest problem I see is where you glued the two pieces of wood together right in the middle of the diff housing, this is a major stress point and most likely will be were it fails.

Very cool wood working skills. Looks great. But, they're not going to hold up at all.

Fixed the size of the images for you. The forum browser has never auto-sized images when loading.
