Wheels w/o rear axles, or a Midget dolly

So I'm going to keep the half shafts from the Midget, but I still need to be able to roll the car around in the garage while I'm working on it. Can I bolt the wheels back on with the half shafts removed, just for garage rolling?

Otherwise, any good ideas for a Midget dolly? Once I get the engine out, I'm going to pull the front discs as well so it really won't be a roller anymore.

Sure, not a problem, hub and brake drum is all that is required, gut it.
