Thanks, good to know. However I am staring to think these axles are more for show than go...

given the pounding the TF2 has taken by alot of members on here I would say its a go...

The axles are fine mate. I have just sold my first TF2 which I bought as soon as they came out. Apart from having to shim one input gear they were bullet proof.

You just wait and see, they will go on and on"thumbsup"

Just check the screws in the top and bottom of the knuckles and lock-tite them. If they get loose, more slop will develop, and it won't go away just by tightening it up.

To get rid of king pin slop, do the bearing mod from the Bully forum. Completely removes the slop.

The size is 3x6x2.5, drill the knuckles out to 7/32" and wallah, no more slop, it really does work.

Here is a link to the mod in the Bully section.
