bansheegirrl Posted October 1, 2016 Report Share Posted October 1, 2016 I've been wanting to go from stock axle and swingarm to both aftermarket extended.. I just don't know what brands or which to go with. Usually just do hillclimbing and trailriding. what do you guys think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sleeper06 Posted October 1, 2016 Report Share Posted October 1, 2016 Fireball racing , stellar,turbo chassis,durablue axle or jja play Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trickedcarbine Posted October 1, 2016 Report Share Posted October 1, 2016 RPM, Lonestar, DuraBlue in that order for an axle. Swing arm, there are plenty of great options right now. Are you wanting something arched or like a ladder bar? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
special06shee Posted October 1, 2016 Report Share Posted October 1, 2016 Where do you ride? If you just like to "play" on the hills and arent too serious about making it up the steepest shit, go with a +4swinger. Anything longer REALLY takes away from trail riding. The ride and turning radius really go down hill if you go longer then a 4over. As far as an axle, if you ride in rocks, stay far away from ANY aluminum axle. Ive have good luck with durablue. There are many good quality swing arms out there, and ive had many of them, but imho fireball has the best swing arm out there as far as strength and looks. But there are not cheap. I believe the last one i got from them was 650ish, but that was for a +8. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what I'm more worried about Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
special06shee Posted October 2, 2016 Report Share Posted October 2, 2016 Just make sure your carrier and axle are 35mm and youll be good. Also make sure you get a round house carrier Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what I'm more worried aboutJust need the correct carrier and axle size. Get a 35mm carrier and any axle will work except for the drag axles. You won't be looking at those any ways. But I would only run 3 swing arms. Roll design. Which you won't get. JL. There sweet pieces. Fireball. There really sweet pieces too.

Big Mike NY Posted October 3, 2016 Report Share Posted October 3, 2016 I went with a +4 JL swingarm (he built one for my TRX 250R and it's amazing). I also bit the bullet and bought a JJ&A play axle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
