Anyone have experience with Flexride axles?

So I have the frame out from under my '75 Trillium and am shopping for a new axle. I must say I am impressed with the Flexride engineering claims, and I'm wondering if any of you out there have...

Thank you Greg! That would be embarrassing! Looking at it now, it rides with about 3 1/2" clearance from tire to wheel well. I'm good with that, but I have no "bounce" in the suspension which makes...
