Yeah, I know it's supposed to be possible. The problem is that the threaded freehub body is longer than a freewheel is deep, causing the freewheel to bottom out before it clears the axle locknut. I'm guessing that no one else has actually tried this configuration and mostly regurgitating the same info I've already read.
