X-33= Junk

[Foxrage]

Well I bought this axle about 1 month ago. rode on it about 2 hours. I was jumping it and it broke with my 110 pound ***. I cant beleive i have broke my frame and an axle what the **** is my problem. Anyway Im gettin a new x-33 and sellin it and buying an RPM. I just hope Durablues customer service is better than there axles:rolleyes: Heres a pic the rest is in the woods with my 400.

[02 Red Rider]

That sucks!:grr Where are the breaks on your frame?

[Foxrage]

I broke it by the upper shock mount its all fixed and guesseted tho.

[02 Red Rider]

Well good luck to you!

I agree 100%...you need shocks dude..or your gonna keep breakin stuff...garaunteed 100% ya willl...:blah Go read some of the LT travel threads,,you'll learn alot about suspension..;)

[OCCRA288]

Get some shocks, that will solve some of your problems and get a quality axle none of that Durajunk.

[hondaracer31]

Get good shocks and a RPM Dominator axle, you won't have any more trouble.
I have PEP ZPS and a Dominator on my 400ex. I've had them for 4 years and I am 240lb and do 80' jumps.
:macho

[lil400exman]

man the durablue was the toughest thing on my buddies quad so there not tough? you reccomend going to a lonestar or rpm or sumthin liek that?

[Foxrage]

I know i need shocks and know all about them. I have been saving forever its hard to get money for my stuff, my mom is about ready to sell mine cause shes tires of **** breaking. The shocks wouldnt of done anything for my axle. I barely jumped and didnt even land hard. I broke my frame about 4 months ago because when i had big tires on it it would land hard. Now its alot better. If you guys would like to start a fund have at it LOL. But i do plan on shocks soon.

[OutlawEX]

Damn DuraBreak...GEt an RPM....I can get them for 380 with all papers brandnew in the box,OutlawEx@aol.com if u need RPM axles

[Foxrage]

I might be talkin to you in a bit. I am on a tight budget right now so i will see what happens soon. I think my 400 will be changed when its done.

[Evan]

Man dude that sucks, I feel bad, you must think I sold you junk or something.. I cant understand it though, Im pretty sure I jumped some nice sized jumps on it and I cant understand why it chose now to break. I figured if it was gonna break, it would have broke along time ago. Like I said though I will send the papers and do everything I can to help you get a new one.

[Foxrage]

Heres the whole thing. I hope i can still get a new one.

[Foxrage]

Ooops forgot the pic.

[trx400ex]

i would try to get the original owner to get the new axle, just have evan say he broke it, they probably wont give it too you if they know you bought it used.

[Mxbubs]

I have unbelievably had good luck with this axle. I have been told that the really old ones where made better. Mine is really old. Keep those hubs if you send the axle back, sell them if they send you another set of hubs.:D

[Dave400ex]

Yeah you need some Shocks for sure. My brother hasn't broke his Eliminator yet, but I'm sure he will one of these days. Hopefully they don't give you to much crap....

[Foxrage]

Ah they can have the damn hubs im not waisting my time takin em off.

[Mxbubs]

Ill trade you stock ex front hubs, chromed, with no bearings, and no wheel studs......I stripped them to go into my Nac's hubs.

i got sponcored by durablue and got an awesome discount....

but reasons like that made me drop them as a sponcor. i wouldnt want that heppening to me during a race...

i swear durablue axles are made out of cheese

[Foxrage]

I have front hubs already. They probly wont send me hubs back if i send them just the axle.

Good thinking try gettin lonestar to sponcer you.

[Foxrage]

Just dont want anyone making the same mistake i did. Bump

[mrusk]

I tottally remember us telling you not to buy this axle.

matt

[Evan]

Can you post a pic of the jump that you broke it on please?

[Foxrage]

I dont know what your problem is mrusk but you need quit posting in all my threads if you dont have anything usefull to say. I dont care if you told me or not but now im telling you to stay the **** out of my threads. i thought i would never have to use my ignore feature.

I dont have any pics of the jump just vids of me hitting it a while back. they are on my website. I cant get any either cause my track is back in the woods and i dont have nuthin to ride.

[darrell43031]

hey man i migh tbe down this weekend and i could come over and take you down or have jams do it. but just to let everybody know i've hit the jump he broke his axle on on my 300 and it's not big at all and i weigh 235 lbs. and my 300 takes it like a champ. and buy the way you better suck up to your mom real good to get the cash for that rmp lol.






hey arl i bet my 300 can out run your 400 now:D

[Foxrage]

haha i wish my mom knew more about them so she wouldnt ***** every time i do something wrong. HAHA The axle thing i have under control but right now its the shocks, por 15 motor mods and **** like that im haveing the trouble with but by the time the bayou is ready to sell ill have her convinced.;)

[NoWingNoPrayer]

Out of curiosity What did you hit to snap the axle like that

[Foxrage]

I hit a small jump fairly easy cause of the snow. ITs a down hill kind of double so you cant case it or anything. I didnt even land hard it was a smoth landing till it popped off.

[fmf300ex23]

Number one proble is the x-33 axle is a lighterweight axle made more for the TT use, i had a durabreak woops i mean a durablue eleminator and snapped one of those too, now i run a Lonestar on my R and its great but RPM is the best, better sell the new x-33 quick because you have to pay for the next one you break, good luck
