Can the axle be installed above the spring on the HF or is this a No No?
Has anyone done this? Pics please!

yes, some of the plans have you mount it that way. But remember your building over the wheels, so flipping the axel, the wheels are going to be farther up in the cabin.

Check the "Generic Benroy Plans" at the top of the page. It has pictures of what you will need to do for the axle clearence when it is above the springs. Those plans are for a Red Trailer, but it is essentially the same as the HF.
