2004LEBanshee Posted October 7, 2017 Report Posted October 7, 2017 So i have a redline 10 cub that i trail/quarry ride. Redoing a bunch of stuff with a new frame swap. My current axle is a old g force with no chrome left and loose hubs all around. Most the chrome fell off just pressure washing i dont beat it that bad. This thing is hideous and worn. I want a new axle and dont want to put used worn sproket and wheel hubs on a new shaft. Here are my options and opinions. Any input is appreatiated. Jj play axle. Love the light weight and all new keyed hubs for a decent price. Hate that its shorter then stock. Not sure aluminum can hold up. Maybe wheel spacers can get it to +1. I use +2 now and hate to go bigger or much smaller. $650ish Durablue x33. Love gun drilled, wider then stock, keyed wheel hubs included. Still need a new factory or aftermarket sproket splined hub. Hate lock nut. $700 ish Lonstar/ rpm with billet hubs all around. Heavy , tons, of money, and splines all around. May have the same loose spline problems i have now. Yes i impact them on. Looks great and is extended. $8-900 ish for all billet hubs and 550ish for stock on the axle. G force with all new hubs factory or billet. Hate paying that much for stock stuff i think this quad will ware out fast. $350 500 ish for stock stuff and axle. 600 for lonestar stuff on this axle. Quote
2004LEBanshee Posted October 7, 2017 Author Report Posted October 7, 2017 Also i old and im not jumping some dam tripple. 5 feet is about all i get. So im not snapping stuff. Just stripping stuff. Quote
salmon_slayer06 Posted October 7, 2017 Report Posted October 7, 2017 Tusk axles do the job. Axle nut not the greatest. Use pvc pipe slid over axle to snap clip into groove. I give it 8-10. Quote
gusto Posted October 7, 2017 Report Posted October 7, 2017 RPM but I think they're out of business. i couldn't order a bumper from them last week. Quote
Keno Posted October 8, 2017 Report Posted October 8, 2017 RPM but I think they're out of business. i couldn't order a bumper from them last week.Seriously?! That really sucks. I've always heard they make the best axles. Quote

locogato11283 Posted October 8, 2017 Report Posted October 8, 2017 JJA play axle. I ran them on my hillclimb bikes for years and bombed them off some big ass jumps. It will be more than adequate for your bike. Best part is you drop about 10 pounds of rotating mass with the aluminum assembly over a steel one. Quote
2004LEBanshee Posted October 8, 2017 Author Report Posted October 8, 2017 Did the shorter wheelbase hurt you at all? Im +2 1 up front. Quote
locogato11283 Posted October 8, 2017 Report Posted October 8, 2017 Nope. The axle is 34" wide. I prefer the back to be more narrow than the front but you can always flip your rims to gain a couple extra inches per side, providing they have an offset. Quote
2004LEBanshee Posted October 8, 2017 Author Report Posted October 8, 2017 Does that one use the 40mm carrier. I just redid my 35mm with new bearings. Any chance i can just swap bearrings and use the same housing Quote
spurdy Posted October 8, 2017 Report Posted October 8, 2017 Carriers are the same. Only difference is in the bearings used. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote
locogato11283 Posted October 8, 2017 Report Posted October 8, 2017 I'd run a JJA carrier with their axle. Quote
sleeper06 Posted October 8, 2017 Report Posted October 8, 2017 You can just change bearings but like loco stated I like the jja with there axle Quote
