250r oem axle

[OSR]

I want to send my R axle to be chromed, but I want to remove the sprocket hub on the left side of it first. I've tried wd-40 and a mallet,hot wrench etc. , nothing works, it won't even budge!

HELP NEEDED!!!!......... Or does anyone have an oem stock axle off of a 86-89 R quad or 3 wheeler. I want one that has a decent finish on it.

Thanks

You have to take the axle to someone with a hydraulic press.I used a long piece of 2 inch schedule 40 pipe.You have to press the hub towards the center of the axle first take off the ring clip,then press the hub off the axle.
I took one off with a 25 pound sledge hammer once.I clamped it to my picnic table.Set the bottom of the axle on a thick piece of steel put the pipe over it,and pounded away until it came off took about 100 or so swings and the axle was ruined but it came off:) the axle was bent anyways I just wanted the hub for a spare.A nd well I wanted to see if I could do it:lol:

Thanks for the info.

Unless someone on here has a decent oem axle , I'm going to order a DUARBLUE HEVT DUTY tomorrow.

That's usually your best best, duralubes are a great axel.. and you can be certain since it's new it will be STRAIGHT! I've botten like 2 used axels and they both were bent, slightly but bent enough to feel it when you ride fast :lol:

the durablue is GARBAGE compared to the lonestar axcalibur, ive owned both, another thing is the durablue WILL NOT work with a lonestar axle carrier!!! ONLY STOCK! also, the axcalibur looks better, and felt like it was MUCH better quality. i will never order another durablue again unless its my only choice. even the axle spacers had a ***EDITED*** finish and felt like cheap metal compared to the axcalibur ones.... trust me.
