durablue

[predator dad 49]

just got my sons durablue elininator axle. its for an 05' predator 90. now i cant get the wheel hubs over the splines on the new axle. i tried the stock hubs and the 400ex hubs, the hubs have the same spline and both fit on the stock axle any help would be great

there will be 2 threads off set to help align it up with, or it will never go on straight. I did the same thing.

Had the same thing happen to us. I called Durablue tech support. they told me to but grease on the splines and work the hub back and forth using a mallot. I did it (crinching all the way) and it worked.
On another note. I didnt like the spacers they gave me (looked hoeky) so I had some stainless steel tubes made up to the correct lenght.

Yea alot of times what happens is the chroming gets down in the splines on the axle when they chrome it, I have even had to take a small round file and file inbetween the spines before, I am sure that is what you are running into.
