I think the answer will be no but - does anyone know if it will fit my Tri-Z?

With quite a few mods, yes, it'll work. I have a Durablue +4 YFZ axle in my old Z. You need the YFZ sprocket hub and sprocket, the YFZ axle bearings and seals, and some lathe work on the Tri-Z brake hub. You might be able to use the YFZ brake hub and not have to mod the Z ones but I never looked into it that far. I almost forgot, you'll also need the YFZ locknut deal that presses up against the snap ring and holds the sprocket hub over in place up against the Z carrier.

Thanks Billy, i've been offered a couple now - seems like a lot of work & extra bits. I'm waiting on a guy with a Team +2 off a Banshee, think i'll take that one when he's ready.

I agree. The only reason I messed with the stuff to get the YFZ axle was, I practicly got it for nothing $75 and it was still in the original durablue box with the foam and everything. The guy that bought it went on one dune trip, bent it, had it straightened, and put it back in the box and for sale.
