Front axle sliders

Post by OzzieDave » Sun Feb 12, 2017 7:15 am

I purchase some inexpensive axle sliders from a seller on Aliexpress, as I couldn't find any specifically for the TRX.
These were for a Kawasaki.
I used a metal rod from an old inkjet printer to run through the axle (10mm dia), cut some 8mm threads at either end, turned up some adaptors out of aluminium to hold the sliders in place then fitted to the bike.
I think they look good.
The metal washers need to be machined a bit smaller, but I ran out of time today.

Very inventive, OzzieDave. Not bad looking, either. 8)
