I also slide the axle in from the right, but it always seems the hanger gets knocked off the guide or the axle spacers get knocked off the wheel. The pin is a better idea than a bolt, that way it could be removed easier.

I was thinking about it and may have came up with a solution that will not require modification of the swingarm. By enlarging the ID of the hanger and the axle block I could turn down a sleeve that could go between the axle and the hanger and axle block. Where it goes into the swingarm/axle block it can be flattened at the top and bottom so that it will slide in the existing slot of the swingarm. This will limit the forward/aft adjustment but will not require modification of the swingarm.

I did find this thread:

But that does not seem like a great solution as it would allow some misalignment between the hanger and axle block, you would still have to line them up with the axle too.
