No luck finding an axle the correct width with Semi hub centric hubs.
So I picked up a 90 Kodiak axle and I am cutting 9"s out of the center.

This will give me large 4 wheel disk with the standard 10 lug hubs.

I have 22.5 alcoa rims for the axle.

I am in the process of making a jig to hold the axle. Ill post pics when I get to that point.

It worked out great but I took 10" out of the center to get it short enough.
I found out that it was not a Kodiak axle but a Freightliner
