Did you use worm gears on the axles as part of a telescopic drive shaft system?

Yes. The drive axles can move freely through the worm gear and the housing.

Im thinking of trying to build a vehicle with a half decent tractive effort

I can try. I'm more concerned that the axles might twist and break
