| Front or back tubes?
If you bought two sets of axles tubes but decided to put one set in the back of your Yeti, where would you put the other one on your Bomber? In the front or back axle?? Which one is more likely to break? Not too worried about weight - more for durability as my Bomber is a U4 speed rig. Sent from my GT-I9305T using Tapatalk |

I would say front would be priority. You take impacts on the front a lot more often. Also, most of the weight tends to be up front, so I imagine that would put more force on the front axle on hard landings.

I'm going with back, by experience! When you hit something with the rear wheels they don't give because there isn't a pivot point like there is up front. You'll snap the rear axle housing right where the screws for the shock mount are. Sent from a device in my hand that is smarter than me, and I don't know WTF I'm doing. |
