@jabbajaw99 - can you post a pic of the axle installed showing how much threads are sticking out?

Stock rear axle - 172mm long, M12 (P1.5) 16L  - so no one else needs to zoom in.  Breaking down the numbers - 172mm from below the head to the end of the threads.  12mm diameter.  1.5 thread pitch.  16mm of the axle has threads.

A few options without a handle.  Not perfect matches but the overall length and thread pitch fit.  1mm short shouldn't be an issue.  If we get a picture of the stock axle threaded in it will show whether the 1mm difference will fall short.  Some stock axles protrude more so the 1mm might end up flush with the body. An alternative to slightly shorter is going slightly longer and using a small plastic or polymer washer under the bolt head to offset things slightly.

ZTTO - 171mm long and 19mm of the axle threaded.  $10.89 https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005001703950314.html black only.

@snacks - if the lower link fits you can run the 30mm bearing mounts front and rear - pretty cool.

@darius72 - check out the ZTTO thread together Bottom Bracket.  The body is similar to a Wheels Mfg one and only costs around $20.  You can swap in enduro bearings if the stock ones don't do what you need.

8x22.2 looks close enough with the fox hardware.  Always easier to shave off material than add more.

Does anyone have information on spacers/shock mounting hardware required?

One advantage to later shipping on larger frames - the small frame folks will have bearing sizes and hardware figured out first.
