funny you should say that, I've wondered about how to carry them greased safely. Good idea about some thin sheet metal, thanks for the poke :)

No axles w/me, but I carry 2 cleaned/oiled CV's w/me in zip locks, can of CV grease and in the bottom of the closet, in a plastic bag, a grease gun
with a needle (about 3/16") on it for easy "tune ups", inserted under the boot axle end. I've needed that 3-4 times while out on the road, despite
home maintenance. The price of a lifted Syncro.
