Take the Durabend and drive it in the ground and tie a dog to it, thats all they are good for. Call and get a RPM.

it wont pay to do it, theres a shop by me that can make them strait and do stems also but its like .050 off from straight... but its super close...

i would get a LSR RPM but the replacemet deal is only on some spots....

I do not know if they will do anthing or not, but here are a few questions:

Are you the original purchaser of the axle?

Did you send in the warrenty card? (I think my Durablue came with one, but not positive. I know my LSR on my 450R did.)

Did you buy it within the last year or two?

I would say if you answered "no" to any of these questions, I would guess they will do nothing for you. (and why would they?)

I have had a Durablue axle on my 250R for almost three years. Have beat it up in the dunes, desert, and a few desert races. Still as straight as the day I put it on.

I had them replace an axle for me in the past, no problems at all. I wasn't the original owner and had no info other than I had their axle and it was bent. When you call they will tell you the details on the warranty program, if its only bent so far they will straighten it and send it back, if its too far out they will send you a new one. Mine wasn't bad and they were going to straighten it so I made sure to make it a replacement axle.

jesus christ dude! guy brings up some good points and you're jumping all over him. um, you're the dumb *** who asked what to do/who to call! duh! call walmart. if they won't do anything call mcdonalds(ask for ronald). with your spelling and grammer you're probably 14 and your mom and dad buys everything for you, so i doubt durablue is sweating your future purchases.

Most of the time, warranties are only good to the original purchaser. You really think you can be the second, third, fourth owner of something and they will warranty it? What other part can you buy used and still have a warranty? (Not just quads, but anything.) If that is the case, lets all buy used broken parts and we will just warranty them and get new. Get a clue and grow up. I am sure Durablue is really worried if you never buy anything from them again. (Have you ever bought something from them?)

By the way, check your spelling and grammer, I think it is time for you to go back to school, because you really need to work on it.

Actually, I have a friend that will occasionally buy older cheap Craftsman and Snap-On tools off from ebay, etc, and then will intentionally break them (read: stick them in a vise and use the added leverage of a pipe... you get my drift) and return them to get new ones. It's pretty sad and pathetic, I know. That's really the only case where I can see that working out though.

if you know who to call and have internet access couldn't you figure out how to get durablue's #? respect is earned, with your punctuation and grammer you're not going to get any, on the internet or off.
