I have a question about wheel spacers in general... Which are better, the spacers that are just extended wheel lugs, and you just screw them onto the stock lugs. Urethane/Titanium spacers, or the solid metal ones. Each go up in price from each other but I am guessing the solid metal would be the most realiable but then again Urethane/Titanium weight less and revolving mass weights more. Also to get rid of the tipsyness, which I am used to already on my raptor, but to get rid of it... What size do I buy and do I need them in the front too or will just the rear do..
Finally what is the advantage of going with a longer axle instead of wheel spacers, besides a lighter wallet.

Thanks,

MIke.

 

I put wheel spacers on my raptor and it went through bearings like crazy but i dont know if it would give you the same trouble.......go with wider axle, my choice dura blue or LSR racing and you can get an axle that is adjustable in width

 

How hard is it to take off the axle and put a new one in? anyone konw the procedure?

 

No big deal. Take off the right wheel and hub. Loosen the axle nuts and whack it thru.

 

Cool, thanks, I am not gonna buy one yet but if I do I'll sure to have more questions, cause an axle seems like a better deal then spacers.

 

In mho, there is no difference be tween buying a longer axle and putting spacers on. You still acheive the same thing. A longer axle. The longer you make the axle, the more stress it put on the bearings. Period.

I use spacers myself with no problems.
