Tamiya box trailer spread axle

[powerstroke_1999]

These are the shackels I made out of 1/2 brass strip they didnt have 5/16 at my hobby shop so I had to cut them down with shears and dreamel them to make them round only took 4 hours to make.I used some brass piping to make a sleve for the screws to go in then made a sleve to go over the brass piping so I can have a spacer for the top.I also added a nylon washer on the out side so they can move freely.I could have used 1/4 wide strip but I wouldnt have enough room for the screw holes.
