Default Is this a good axle to get?

Hello,

I need everyones advice on this axle for my 660R. I'm thinking about getting a aftermarket axle mainly because mine got chewed up when my axle bearings went.

Anyway, the axle I was thinking about is the "Dura-blue Eliminator" it's just like stock size but in chrome and much stronger. I saw it somewhere for under $300 and thought it might be a good deal. Should I get it?

thanks in advance!

it's good, but you can get a G-force for 199.00 from rocky mountain atv. It comes with a locking nut as well, I put one on mine and it working out great. Cant beat the price!

I broke a few eliminators on my warrior.. Still have an eliminator on 1 but have a lonestar Axcalibur on the other.. I decided to go with the Gforce Axle on my 660r and I have no qaulms with it yeah and i have Put some serious stress to it. Enough to snap a chain. many 1 wheel off camber landings and having bent it yet. Its probably not the lightest axle out there. and it will make your quad wider.. Like my raptor is 50" in the back with 9x9 T9 Baja wheels. wish they made them stock width.. But oh well thats what i have other quads for i guess.

Cool! Thanks for your advice guys. So maybe I should look into this "g-force" axle. Does this come in stock length for a 660r? Any other suggestions would be appreciated! Thanks....

Speaking of the G-force.. My friend has a brand new one on his banshee and some of the chrome is flaking off so he wants to sell it to me for 150. Will it fit my raptor?
