Derf,
Were you advocating stripping a semi-elliptic WW axle housing bare and
building it into a quarter-elliptic housing? That's thinking outside
the box! The more I think about it, the more I like it. I have done
something similar in the past successfully at home when I built the
axle for my Rotus 7, but it took a lot of straightening to get it
right. I don't know how many Sprite MK II WW housings were made, so
this could be the best way to a no-compromise conversion?
