Hi ryderr6 the square nylon axle has a hole drilled up the centre and the wheels I used are from a bruder truck front axle which still has the original metal axle which is now slid through the nylon axle hope this helps.

Are those feeler gauges that you used for the suspension base? I love the build and the use of regularly used items is ingenious engineering!! Can't wait to see more updates
