I got some $ this week and want to buy a wider axle. I dont do ANY jumping, just desert racing with lots of whoops, rocks, holes and unexpected bumps....some hardpack with wide trails(width isnt a problem) and some light dune riding...What would you guys recommend? I want something that will give me atleast +3in. Help me out here.

i was going to get a gforce axle from rockymountain, but they are out of stock. they told me the first of march is when they expect them in stock. it comes with a lifetime warranty and locking axle nut for 200 dollars.im going to wait till there in stock then pick one up.

I too think of buying a GForce axle but for my YFZ, they look good, and look pretty strong too, also the prices are low for a axle, check them out they offer various inches.

Ive seen these axles on ebay before, looks like something a guy makes at his own shop. You have any experience with these?

Here is the guy's feedback, looks like people like his axles

Here is the cheapest durablue Ive found so far, will the banshee axles fit a raptor? I know the stock ones will, but is it the same for aftermarket ones?
