Designed my hubs, I will weld some studs in, most likely making the axle tomorrow it will be out of 2 1/2in tubing and coil suspension if I don't get coils from school I'm gonna use some coil overs.

Skinnyed the width up to a more realistic and safe width as the old one would put to much stress.

And lengthened it to compensate for steering.

Didn't end up building the front axle today cause I need to mount the tires first which should be this week, here's about the length it's gonna be to compensate for steering
