Just got my durablue adjustable 2+4 axle from Dennis Kirk...first off i noticed there was no spacers for the +4 adjustment...secondly after awhile i found out that its for the older model ds...even tho i orderd it for 04...figure that one out. Anyways it will be prob a month before i get a new axle if i send it back and they will prob screw up and send the old axle again. My question is...whats the diff everything seems to fit such as the wheel hubs but do the break hubs fit the same for all models and are the bearing area on the axle the same??? could i just order a 00-03 sprocket hub and put it on my 04 ds? would everything fit fine?

 

how do you know its for the older models??not the 04

 

The sprocket splines are to short for the longer version of 04 and up sprocket hubs....the splines on the 00-03 are shorter therefor take a shorter hub while the 04 and up have longer splines. My splines are to short for the snap ring to even come close to snapping on..so it has to be a 03 and below.

 

what about the sprocket hub durablue offers??

 

Well..yea thats sort of what im asking...if i got a new sprocket hub would everything else fit off my 04? or would i need new internals in the swingarm due to the swingarm change in 04?

 

if thats the case I may have a 04 and need the one you have, and you have the one i need! i just bought one as well brake hub is at powder coater have not tried on new axle, and I bought their aluminun sprocket hub, hope it fits???

 

better hurry if you want this one !!!

hey dunerider did you ever figure it out? just got back from powder coater and tried to put brake hub on new axle doesnt slide over wheel hub stop! I have plenty of splines for both! paul at durablue says bombardier has changed the brake hubs quite a few times? talked to distubutor i got axle from he says its for the 2000-2003! curious if yours fits on axle or not? and if you no anything about brake hub changes?

 

anyones info on this subject would be very helpful !!!!

 

someone has to have installed durablue axle??? since they only make 2 different versions, you have had to have the same dilema?? talked to can am dealer every year except 2001, and 2003 they have changed!! what did you do to make it work???
