Bongshee Posted October 4, 2004 Report Posted October 4, 2004 Has anyone used these before?.......I am looking to widen my rearend without having to spend all the $$ on a a durablue axle. What do you guys recommend for spacers?.......3", or 5" Cheers Quote
txblueshee Posted October 4, 2004 Report Posted October 4, 2004 I ran the 3'' spacers on each side.... aslo turned my stock axle into a U and warped my hubs at the same time. Unless you just put around (which in such you should sell the 'shee) then I wouldn't reccomend the spacers. Save up another 200$ and just buy the aftermarket axle.... you're gonna end up doing it anyway. Mike Quote
kenr74 Posted October 4, 2004 Report Posted October 4, 2004 I used the 2.5" on each side and didn't have any problems but I ride almost only sand and don't do much jumping. The made the bike much more stable but I wouldn't recommend them for hard riding. Quote
bigboybanshee Posted October 4, 2004 Report Posted October 4, 2004 Or you could flip your wheels around like I did and gain an extra 2 inches on each side...and its free! Quote
racer Posted October 4, 2004 Report Posted October 4, 2004 Or you could flip your wheels around like I did and gain an extra 2 inches on each side...and its free! that is definately the thing to do in this case. Quote
Big Blue Posted October 4, 2004 Report Posted October 4, 2004 I have by wheels fliped right now. ill buy aftermarket axle later on. Quote
Percy Posted April 12, 2005 Report Posted April 12, 2005 I put the spacers in, but ended up bending the stock axle, so put a durablue axle anyway. Do mostly hard trail riding and some jumps, so shoulda gone with the durablue in the 1st place. Luckily my local dealer took the spacers back. DB axle looks very trick as well... Quote
sredish Posted April 12, 2005 Report Posted April 12, 2005 Save up another 200$ and just buy the aftermarket axle.... you're gonna end up doing it anyway. 264806[/snapback] Like Mikeyboy said, your gonna end up doing it anyway, and a lot quicker with the spacers. Quote
05bansh Posted April 13, 2005 Report Posted April 13, 2005 My bro just put the G force Spacers on his yfz, he hasnt rode since he put them on. I was trying to tell him to buy and axle and not waste his $$. I'll let you know how they work out after we ride this weekend. Quote
