torsion axles

Has anyone ever designed a torsion bar type axle for Airstreams? A torsion bar, solid or hollow( to save weight) mounted solidly in the center of the axle tube and on the other end to the arm that holds the tire. One for each side, of course. It would get rid of that rubber stuff, and be nearly indestuctable. I can hear Andy fireing up his keyboard already! LJH
