G-force Axle

[Hilarious]

What's up fellas? I just got me one them purddy chrome g force axles. Seems to me to be well worth the 200 bucks that they are sellin em for @ RMATV. Looks way better than stock, pretty darn beefy lookin too and was pretty easy puttin on. Just wanted to give u guys a heads up. I havent seen many threads about it. I will be givin it hell this weekend and see how well it stands up. It came with some nice, heavy duty castlenuts on the ends and a nice beefy lookin 3 piece lock nut. Just a heads up for you guys lookin for a cheaper alternative to the durablue and lonestar axles. I can try to post some pics of it later today if you guys want. I've gotten alotta usefull info from you guys so I thought it would be fair for me to add my .02 werf.

Peace out.

If you can break that thing so that we can see how well the warranty is.

yea i got one also....looks to be well worth the money...havnt got a chance to install it yet though.

Hey I have the G-Force as well, but on mine, the c-clip on the sprocket hub side always backs off allowing the 3 piece locknut to move. Could you post some detailed pics showing how this setup is supposed to go together because by the sounds of it I have something incorrectly installed.

here's a picture of the nut. The side with the allen locking screw goes tward the sprocket hub. I didnt torque it down or anything just got it pretty tight and i didnt have any play in it so i tightened it down. I dont know u may be getting the nut too tight to push the c clip off. time will tell. i have bout an hour on it now and i havent broken anythin, yet.

thanks, only problem is that mine looks like this

what in gods name is supposed to go over the c-clip???

Yours looks right, mine dont... lol, so therefore, what is over your clip, how come mine is right out in the open like it is? Is that little spacer about 1/4 of an inch long over the clip or is it the threaded piece of the locknut?

[Hilarious]

Take the piece that threads into the nut and turn it around. One end should have a groove and one side should be straight. thread the straight end into the nut. The c clip on the axle should rest in the groove when you are finished. Hope this helps.

Mine Looks the same on my durablue axel.

Well thats alright to know that its not only my axle... I've tightened everything up and nothign has moved since, I just don't trust it. But I guess if I put it through hell and it doesnt move, I have nothing to worry about... lol.... so I'll probably just forget about it for now and see how it all pans out, thanks for all the help with it though all the same

I see how you placed the locknut & snap ring. There's another ring that comes with this axle. Looks like a spacer [looks like the snap ring housing on the brake rotor side]. Where is it at??

I think there's an extra spacer shipped with the axle for Raptors to align the sprocket. I had a G-Force axle once, and it looked like a damn good axle. Problem was that I allegedly bought an Axcalibar LSR one, so I shipped the fake back and got my money refunded.

I really like & will find out how well it handles the Dumont Dunes next month.

when I flipped the rear end of my bike over the front several times, I bent the wheel hubs and destroyed the frame but the axle is still perfect I think they are great, espcialy for the money.
