After messing around and modifying the stock axle and front spindles to mount larger wheels, I still wasn't happy. I decided to go for a more standard axle and settled on doing a 3/4" custom job with shaft adapters to mount 1" ID wheels. I didn't go 1" for the shaft because it was easier to source a sprocket and a sprocket hub that I used as a brake rotor (reusing the stock caliper). I also cut off the front spindle nuts and added a washer to reduce the negative camber and get rid of a bit of stock steering wobble.
