RPM... I have beat the hell out of mine and it is perfectly straight. I've personally seen Lonestars break. One was on the topside of a tabletop...never have figured that one out. I have heard of RPM's breaking, but it is very rare.

I think it is all personal opinion.....

I have the LSR axcalibur, but I would of loved to get the Dominator I think it is called....

Mine is the Dominator II. My last crash I cased a 75 ft double. My A-arms were bent, both front spindles trashed,subframe bent,and Roll Design stem wasted. The only thing that was under warranty was the RPM axle and it was just fine. It was worth the $470 I paid.

I don't jump much with mine, but I crash a lot!:D

A 225 pounder here, and I have the RPM Dominator axle on both the 300 and 400... Very nice axles, and still true!:cool:

Personally, I can not see going wrong with either one. Both are excellent choices!

(Both are made in Arizona, right?)

Either one of the above mentions are good.

Personally, if money was no option, I would try the RAD titanium one. It is like $700 and way out of my league though.

I personaly like lonestar better, but the axle's are both top of the line quality. IDK about the RPM but the LSR has a lifetime warentee on it.

I run a LSR and it has held up just fine. Had to grind off the chrome on the splines to make the hubs go on but other than that no problems.
