which axel to buy

[masterhacker]

So im looking into getting a new axel, Ive narrowed it down to two different ones
Durablue Axles - Eliminator / Oversize 3" or 5" - Cheap Cycle Parts

Lonestar Racing Axcalibar Axle - DennisKirk.com

Which is the better one, and if anyone has any suggestions on a good extended axle, im open to them

THANKS!

i'd get a g force, they have a lifetime warranty, and are cheaper, but if ur set on them 2, i'd get the durablue, i have always been a fan of durabue

 

[masterhacker]

im not set on either, They are the only brands Ive came across, Ill check out the Gforce

if your buying one new then id get a Dominator II. your shock mounts will break before that axle bends...

I have the durablue +3 and I love it. 2X thicker than stock and looks to be unbreakable.

It seems to me that the rpm company made that chart, it seems to favor their products, I don't really trust that, maybe its true, either way, I haven't bent the stock one yet (i dont go over jumps, or even really bumpy terrain), so as long as whatever I bought was as strong as the stock one, I would be happy, I just want something wider (no im not buying spacers) I get it up on two wheels alot, and I figured a wider axle would help with that, I will probably put spacers on the fronts though, maybe Ill buy new A-arms in the near future, but spacers on the front for now

Well if your looking for something wider, just get a banshee axle...they are 1in wider and if you want it wider, just get some wheel spacers.

acutally if you want something wider you are better off just buying a wider axle to begin with. By the time you get the shee axle, and a set of good spacers you might as well save the extra 50 bucks and by a extended axle and it will be stonger, and well parts to worry about.

the g-force axles are lifetime limited warrenty, you only get one free replacement.
the lonestar axle is a nice axle and so is the durablue. imo the lonestar is the better of the two.
oh, that chart, it is garbage. i mean really they misspell laeger.
also has anyone ever seen a laeger axle or even a team axle? i know they make them, but i have never seen one before.

here is a g-force axle
