Re: Axle conversion
Cutting down the 14 bolt shafts doesn’t weaken them. If anything makes them slightly stronger because there is slightly less length to torque the shaft.
Only concern is not getting it too hot depending on how you cut it off. Band saw is ideal and doesn’t put enough heat worth mentioning in the metal.
Most of the aftermarket full-float axles are sold cut-to-length anyhow.
