nice!

I like the extended parts, help distribute the load on the XL axle. However there is still a problem with the XL (and X) axle with the pin being so close to the threads; with the bigger wheels I snapped a bunch of XL axles at where the threads meet the rest of the axle. If you are making parts, I'd really look to replacing the XL axle with a truggy style axle; or at very least look to putting another hole in the axle further up the axle and using a truggy hex adapter or truggy axle extender, sorta like what I did with the XL axles to mount the Baja 5B 24mm hex hubs.
