i have a real wide front end when i switch my rims around. would a wider rear help out stability? if so shoould i just go with a new axle? (please mention brand) or just get spacers?

will the spacers put alot of stress on the hubs if i hit jumps like the ones at jack frost? thanx

I have spacers on my 300...they are great...if you want to get an axle go with the durablue X-33 very nice....it will put a little bit more preasure on the hubs but not too much you should be fine

RPM and durablue arent even in the same league...I would look at an LSR, I believe its $300 from the quadshop...and i think the rpm is a little more than that...Plus, its nice and chrome. :D

Please i beg you, Don't get a DuraBreak. They say they have a lifetime warrenty (All Lies). Get a Lone Star or an RPM. The RPM will be more expensive but either one is a great choice.



Don't get a DuraBreak!!!

The durablue's arent that bad (I've had two and Have seen many take SERIOUS abuse), but I do think the LSR's and Rpm's are better, no doubt.

DONT GET SPACERS! If you already have offest rims, with spacers your axle would break like a toothpick!

Go for a LSR

well, i have an lsr axle that bent on my 4th time on the track, so they're not indestructable. i'm going to see how good they are about the warranty, but if you get an lsr, beware that they can bend, too.
