i will let you know in a week or so when i get mine! but ***** man for the price, cant beat it. you could buy 2 axles for the price of a LSR, or RPM dom. and its got a lifetime warrentie i belive, and they seem good so far from the people i talked to as far as holding up.

Im not positive on Gforce warrenty but I think its pretty much like the rest of them.

prolly right- but i havent seen one break yet so..... on the other hand i have seen so many durabend / break / shatters fall apart it isnt even funny, i think the durablues are a saftey factory.

imho the best axles are RPM dominator, or the lonestar adjustable axle, all with a price of about 400$ but well worth it.

for just normal use the g-force will be FINE- i mean heck 65 footers and its good, it leads me to belive its strong.

dont forget! any axle will bend break. if you land on one wheel repeadately, or keep landing directly with hard rear end impacts!

just jump normal, obivously dont land on one wheel each time, not only will it wear you bearings quicker, but you will get worn out from that jar everytime you land, just land nice and smooth, like you always would. sometimes you get crooked on a track, becuase of another racer and cant help it but, the less is best i belive!

im getting my g-force Really soon, i just got my a-arms so my axle is next, then SHOCKS!

v581 the funny part is.. the same people who had the Gforce went with durablues on I think ALL there quads and have had no other issues since . Im also one of them :) I hear it with all the brands including LSR its just luck of the draw.

I read right in the catalog next to their axles "Limited Lifetime Warranty" although it says nothing about it online.

all i can say is i got my +2 arms, and oh my god, what a difference in handleing, it sits nice and low and wide. i can go around turns like i never could, because i would have flipped, it rides 1000 times better then stock over rocks, and bumps and such, i think when i get a axle im only going to extend it +2.

The G-Force Axle Limited Lifetime Warranty:

"the g force axle comes with a limited lifetime warranty against manufacturer's defects, breaking, and bending."

Damage to threads and such is not covered which it should not be because it will be because of your own stupidity. also the chrome finish is not under warranty

"The customer is responsible for all shipping charges for the return and replacement of the warranted axle. "

"G-force reserves the right to replace or repair warranted axles. To make a warranty claim, contact the retailer the axle was purchased through"

It seems they have the main things covered, for $200 it sounds as good as the others. I thought i would share the card since
it was laying right here. have a good one

well i am getting the axle and I am gonna get some burgard a-arms or houser a-arms for my b-day may 30th then i will be ready. I just cant wait to race my race this weekend with my new tires. :D . I was wondering though should I get +2 or +3 a-arms. I dont trail ride but I have a mechanic and I take my quad to his house all the time by putting the quad in the back of the truck and going to his house. I dont think eather of the 2 will fit in the back of the truck. But what do you think I race motocross, and Supercross.

i get my +3's with stock wheels in my ranger just fine, i could run 1" offsets and still make it in there i think. just a matter of jumpin the wheel wells

i was wondering i was looking at the Dura Blue Eliminator Axle and its 289.95 from Rocky Mountain. Is it better than the g-force,for 90 dollars and can i use stock hubs on both sides with both axles.:)

well that was my question will the G-force stand with all the other axles. I think we are safe buying a G-Force with the limited lifetime warrentie.;) I'm getting it soon very soon.:devil: :devil: :devil:
