Im looking to extend the rear of my 450 tell me the pros and cons of extendted rear axle and wheel spacers

 

Just get the axle, much stronger and a more reliable set up.

 

If you plan to jump a lot, get the axle,I put 1" spacers on the back of my son's 300ex, and ended up bending the axle just past the hub, spacers put more stress on the axle by moving the weight out farther from the hub, stock axles just don't like being torqued on like that.

 

If your not jumping it, get the spacers. They are 95 bucks at Rocky Mountain and if you bend your axle and have to replace it, you can sell the spacers, get your cash back and go with axle. I have the dura blue spacers on my Raptor and have not a problem yet. I don't jump it.

Thats exactly what I did. I wouldnt hesitate to go with the spacers again. I also got mine from RockyMountain (G-Force brand). They were very nice. Then my axle bent from a pretty nasty crash. So I upgraded the axle, sold the spacers for damn near what I paid for them.
