I was at the track awhile back and a saw a 450r with what appeared to be axle extenders. They looked like they hooked up where the hub goes, ( on the splines), then extended our to a new hub.

Is that really what I saw?
If so where do I get them?
Are they durable?
I like the idea that I could change form stock to wide…………

could have been the durablue wheel spacers or if they looked like a hub it was more than likely the rad wheel spacers.

May have been a durablue 2+2 axle. You can adjust it by using the spacers from stock length to +4 wide. You take the hubs off and insert which ever length spacer you want. Then, the remaining spacers go between the hub and axle nut.

My LSR axle works the same way. Sounds like that is what you saw.

yeah, you saw the spacers on an aftermarket adjustable axle. If you go with wheel spacers, which i wouldnt reccomend, especially for the front because it increases bump steer a ton. DO not go with the durablue's. They crack and break. I recently saw a wheel spacer that was billet aluminum, and it looked pretty nice, it may have been a RAD product.
