I see what you are saying about the removal angles, but I hope I won't be having to change anything on the axle very often.

@t3beatz, I like the way you boxed in the outers with the rectangular tubing, it almost looks factory that way.

My kart racing buddy thinks I'm insane for running 5 bearings on the axle, and for a second, I thought I was too, but like you guys, I don't want to have to buy another axle. Ever.

I am, however, a little perplexed on how the bearings and flanges all tie together, but I'm sure I will find out soon enough.

Also, I am at the point of mocking up some type of bushing for the swingarm, and I see you running heims. Do you think those will take the lateral forces generated while turning and articulating? I found a bin of different type bushings at my local ACE hardware, and was going to make something up.
