Swapping out a rear solid axle for a QR one: this page suggests that solid rear axles are usually 3/8" x 26 tpi, whereas QR are 10mm x 1mm. Is there any interchangeability between those? Could the cones and locknuts be transferred over from the former to the latter, or are the tolerances too tight?
