    Rad 350x Axle Nut Questions??

    The axel nut on mine is so rusted and old that it wont loosen up. I got it off and in a bench with a torch and pipe wrench and still cant get it. So will the rad axle nut work, or is the rad one only for the rad bearing carrier? Thanks!
    Sucks i have to pay 60 bucks for a frickin nut though!!!
    Anybody got one for cheaper???

    I know the durablue one will work on all liquid 250r's and 350x's. The rad one should work on a stock carrier.

    How did you get it apart with out being able to loosen it? They are left handed threads, so make sure your going the right way. The larger nut is a jam nut and needs to be loosened first.

    They were really loose kindof. And the axle slid to far to the left. I took the clip off and it slid off. lol. I need to tighten it now but the 2 nuts wont break loose.

    problem is, the rad nut only comes with the nut, you still need the threaded sleeve.....

    Ok, and what about the durablue antilock nut thing. Denniskirk and rockymountain carries them. They look like the whole deal right..but will durablue fit a stock axle, or only durablue axles?
