However, I'm not sure exactly how much extra spline they had...seems I recall that it is typically about 1" that can be cut off of them. Anyone know off-hand?

It's difficult to describe without a picture, but as part of this process I'm also investigating the possibility of relocating the rear brake brakets to the insicde of the axle flange to gain another .25". The Baers install with the caliper bracket sandwiched between the bering retainer and flange, which actually push the back wheels out an extra .25". Ironically, my measurements so far appear that relocating those brackets to the inside will bring the caliper and axle (rotor) both in exactly .25", which along with the narrower housing means that I will need to shorten my axles 1".

I have a set of small-bearing '70 Torino axles out at home, as well as a set of '71/72 trucks; will take a look and try to give you an idea...

The rear disc brake brackets I make (as does Disc-Brakes-R-Us) mount behine the flange, helping you there. If you have calipers already, and/or want to run a larger rotor, I can model the system for you, with the help of a few dims...

Bad thing is, the brake gap on stock big-bearing stuff is 2-3/8", and small-bearing is 2-1/2" (like a Fox). Any way to confirm your brake gap?

I really wanted something lower (numerically higher).
