Ok thanks. I agree the crush tubes are the best starting point to help solve the problem.

Now if you have 2 old wheel bearings you will be able to make some easily. The thing to do is cut the outter of the bearings away so your left with the inner part of the bearing case. It's the perfect size and goes directly between the two wheel bearings.

Something else you can try or do also is get the Alum hex set (link) they lock down over the pin and sit up against the bearing.
