Actually, the thread on those Dyna Drive cranks is 1" x 24 tpi...you could screw a standard fork
into the right side, but you'd need a left-hand threaded fork for the left.
Adaptor bushings for this purpose used to be available, but they seem to have gone extinct. At
least none of the sources I've tried have any of them left. (I get one or two requests for these
every year.)
New cranks are probably the best way to go...
