ive made acouple six by's using a parts box rear end and front axle, cut down the reaerend to shorten one side and extend the other if you need it offset then cut the spindles off the front axle and graft them on the ends. havent tried the steerable part yet.

last one i did this way was c600 ford and had to do a bit of adding and shimming in the front and back to get back to level, its not perfect but it does work well.
