My axle is bent on my blaster and I was wondering if it is possible to fix(if so) is it worth fixing or is it better to buy another good used one for 30 bucks?

 

Buy a new one

 

Ok, thats all I needed to know since I have never had one of my atvs axles bent and didn't know if it could be fixed.

Thanks

 

I had a local machine shop straiten one before...but it did not hold very well...it was bent again in a few months

 

A lot of people may disagree but I have some luck straightening axles. I used a heavy duty press and a lathe to see where the bend was. With the high cost of axles it was worth the effort. It's possible that they would bend again but the ones I have staightened didn't. Of course the best way is the new axle but if your low on $$$ it may get you by. If you go with the used one make sure the splines are in good shape. I would roll it on sonething to make sure it's not bent, it was taken out for some reason. Still the best way is the new axle.
