Cool effort but talk about polishing a fricken turd.

ya, i'd cut down a real axle first b/c the width is the only reason everyone doesn't have 60's. :?

Probably the biggest reason, but they hang down pretty low too.

Personally, to me the main reason for most people not going with a front D60 is the initial price. I mean how many people on here are now running full width 44's? Funny thing is, in the long run, you end up spending less on the 60.

Also, as far as how low they stick down, I guarantee that my front HP D60 has more ground clearance than a stock D44. :wink:
