Well I got tired of messing with the dealer and bought the Durablue Eliminator. I feel I got a great deal so I bought a couple of them. If anyone needs one I'll sell the others. This is the Eliminator with the polished Nickle finish, not the Heavy Duty. They are on the way, haven't got them in hand yet.

Wolv99,

What do you mean by don't test it's limits? Have you had problems?

I'm going to install my axle, any pointers on this. I'm assuming it can't be very hard. I
grew up in an automotive shop, but never had a shaft drive 4 wheeler apart. Repair manuals are non existant for the Wolverine thus far.

Thanks,

Musclford

I have had no problem with the axle. I was just saying dont hit any 8 foot jumps just to see if it bends. I had my dealer install it so im no sure if its hard to install.

What kind of deal did you get on the new axle. I think if mine bends again that I will purchase one myself. I just purchased a plow for my 99 Wolverine. I got a very good deal, the winters here in North Country of New York get pretty rough. I was wondering if this plow will be doing any harm to the atv?

I paid 280.00 and 7.00 for shipping. That was $20.00 bucks cheaper then I've seen anywhere. It was a friend of a friend type of thing, but I'm sure I can get more if your interested.

I say that it was a great deal, well maybe a good deal, but I have seen them selling for much more. My dealer wanted over $330.00 carryout.

By the way, I did just get a great deal on a helmet through Rocky Mount ATV. An Oneal 708 normally 199.00, they are closing out for $89.00
