    Smile Hunting a deal on a TRX450R axle for my 350RX with 06 TRX swinger....

    I have looked everywhere on the net. They just say, +2, -2, +1, +5 and so.

    Does anyone know the exact length of the stock 08 (should be 06 and up I think) of the rear axle?

    I think my swinger is an 08 and about 19.5"s center to center on the swingarm, is that correct? and how much shorter are the 04 swingarms center to center.

    Thank you for any help!

    I think the all the 450 axles are the same. The 04-05 swingarm are an 1" shorter.

    My post was 10 days ago, but thank you for the lookin.... No reason to be a smarty pants. I just wanted to know what was out there that I was unaware of.

    Ya don't think I was all of Google and EBAY??

    Mine is an 08 (in my sig).

    I found an X-33 with all 3 hubs that are pinned, not splined from someone who didn't know what they had; Just an EBAY seller that bought closeouts of many different facets. If you need a sewing machine, he has them.

    I paid 320$ shipped for a X-33 700$ axle.

    Thanks for trying though......

    I know this is off topic and I did just have HRE build me a new Swing Arm for my 350 so I shouldn't be asking this but I was curious just how much goes into putting a 450r swinger and axle on a 350x? Does it require a new shock mount on the frame? You don't have to go crazy into detail but I just need an idea of how it works. I have put so much time and money into my bike and getting it just right but I will never be completely satisfied with it until I have inverts and the best possible rear suspension set up. One with options and parts that are readily available. Any info or advice would be greatly appreciated.

    HRE needs to mod your frame at top of shock mount for the 450 stuff and add bottom linkages to the frame. Your better off just running what you have and having the 350x shock build for what you do. Then adding inverts.

    Because......if you sell a hacked up modified 3 wheeler that is not OEM you will never get dog poo poo for it. I am supersized HRE didn't did ya this when you had the swinger made. I have countless hours over at his shop...and my own self for wheeler builds!

    Thanks for the info. That's pretty much what I was planning on going with. Already had my rear shock built and set up for the new swinger. Just gotta get Jason Hall to build me a kit for the inverts up front.

    "That's pretty much what I was planning on going with. Already had my rear shock built and set up for the new swinger. Just gotta get Jason Hall to build me a kit for the inverts up front."

    You don't have to modify the top. You DO have to locate the TRX450 front hole for the linkage onto the bottom of the 350X frame and gusset it.

    I threw the 08 alum swinger on my mill and a few hours later the chain lined up and I took a bit more off for thrust washers.

    Mine worked very well with a 250R shock (needed a rebuild after awhile) but I asked AXIS to give me a 350X top mount and a 450R lower mount.

    Jasons inverts work excellent!! I wouldn't trade my 3fiddy for anything.....

    Joe,
    I just read this today. He got so fed up with me asking if they were extended again and again he said, " IDFK!! They are 42" long undressed and come with all 3 hubs". That's the extended X33. I'll shoot him an email and see if he has anymore, hid did have 2 more, and a hair dryer of course.....

    Amazon did have them for about 400$ I believe but our buddy can get them for that.

    I just want the billet hubs. These cast hubs are the ones you saw Jacob break at Air MX last year. They do work fine nonetheless.

    I think the break was more due to the wheels nuts loosening up than them being cast. With that said, I'll never be able to punish hubs as bad as Jacob so I'm not worried
