How to tell an Aftermarket axle from a stock one

[mangler]

I bought a banshee a couple months back and noticed it has a dura blue sticker on a chrome axle. Im wondering how i can tell if this is actually aftermarket or just a sticker?

 

 

[KlotzBanshee]

Do you have a picture? That would help alot. :ermm:

go jump the bike, if it breaks its a durablue.

lol true! well its probably durablue if it has the sticker and is chrome! do you mean stock length axle or just stock axle in general?

[Koolguyson]

They come with billet sprocket hubs. I believe the stock axle nut also won't fit on it. Could be wrong on that one though

uhh, more than likely its a durajunk. cant imagine someone would have one chromed, then throw a durajunk sticker on it..

 

snap a pic, thatll tell it all. the durajunks dont use stock axle nuts either.

wow this turned into quite the durablue bashin thread lol what does everyone have against these axles? i drag with my HD axle and i love it, looks better and i think is alot stronger. i do not jump it at all so i cant vouch for that but i have never had a problem with them
