Question Alloy Axle Housing Parts

Do you think these could be made to fit on a TLT axle. These are TA05 C's. TLT-1 knuckles and Alloy TA05 Knuckes would fit these. The only thing is how would one attach these to a TLT housing? Just a thought. I may but them and try to find a way. If it worked it would be a super strong and sweet looking axle.

Those are not Knuckles. Dezfan-Ya I really like those but they are 40 bucks. I may buy some later anyways. I was trying to look for another way. Hell these were only $6.90..

No the hole won't line up. Thats were some fab work would come into play. They should be the right size. They fit the same Knuckles.

Oops, you weren't supposed to notice the screws Actually this was the first prototype and I just stuck those screws in because they fit. All prodution pieces will come with new, full hardware that's 100% stainless steel and NO slots!

i realize those arent knuckles but i was assuming you knew about that housing mod. with the housing mod and the alloy knuckles you would be as strong as you are gonna get.

LoL, all of my products will come with high quality 100% stainless hardware. We're talking washers, screws, nuts, 4-40 rod and more, as I said 100% stainless. I hate seeing nice products come out with poor hardware.
