Now, I have to find a new spindle that will work.

I found the Sugino 3S-B at Jenson. I need to make sure it has a 55mm (+/-1mm) race width though. I think it should work.
The 121.5mm total length should work ok for my 68 BB shell. I want to install a 7s freewheel setup with a Sugino Impel triple crank.
Anyone think this is ok?
I bought the same spindle from Loosescrews a couple months ago-

According to Sheldon's site, it's 52MM for the bearing races.
It's also listed as being non symmetrical, with 1 end 5.5mm longer than the other. Mine looks more like 3mm difference, although it's a bit hard to measure those curvy surfaces.
Anyway, you can swap ends to get a 3? mm different chain line.
