the bearing carriers are the same I believe, thats why the axle fits in all three bikes. If I'm wrong please feel free to correct me, but I think thats the case.

<sigh>...I wonder how many ppl that responded "yes" are speaking from experience.

My guess is... none.

Why do I think this? Because I have tried it and know from experience that they are not the same. The bearings should all be the same, but the axles themselves are not a direct swap. Will it work, yes... but it'll take some work. It's been a couple of years since I built a modded Blaster. There was some brake issue, can't recall exactly what though. From what I recall I think it was that the rotor floats on the Blaster, and the caliper floats on the Banshee. To make it work, you'll need the Banshee brake disc hub, get the sprocket hub as well. I also had to use a spacer, as mine wasn't centered when I put it on my Blaster. I think I ended up discovering the axle carrier was slightly wider on the Banshee than the Blaster, or if the axle carriers are the same, the hubs aren't the same width. I wish I could remembe and answer with specifics. All I can advise you is to get the hubs and that will make it a lot easier. I tried using the Blaster hubs (brake and rotor) and had a world of problems.

Ok, and the axle caliper bracket is on the carrier, correct? So the swap would require the complete axle/carrier/hub assembly?
