Default Rear Axle

I need a rear axle for my 2012 Sportsman 400 HO. Found the Sixty brand in the XT and XTA mosdels. Are they any good?

Add up the negative reviews against the positive and see what it comes out to be.. Reason most bought them was for cost against oem prices.Just a replacement for oem and as several people noted that they could buy a couple or more for what the oem costs.https://www.google.com/search?q=sixi...utf-8&oe=utf-8 If you have the money,a Rhino or Gorilla are stronger,but again they cost.

A lot of these aftermarket axles are fine as long as you're running stock or close to stock size tires and no lift. The Rhino and Gorilla axles are needed when you want to go big. The oem parts are expensive no matter what brand of quad you have.

I'd probably stick with oem. They are probably made in USA, and the others Chinese.

Had good luck with the XTA's on my wife's 570.
