@@trailblogger this video save me $160 I was planning on taking it to the shop but it took 5 days to come in so I just watched this video a lot and eventually learned how to do it thanks man
Ya know back in the day those used to be gforce axles i used to run them all the time on the kfx and they were great for the money! Now tusk bought them out! Great video man hope your doing ok w all this craziness going on!
TrailBlogger yup i remember the same think w the kfx’s haha thats funny! I think back then those axles were like 199.99 it was quite the deal! Ya part one is up let me know what ya think! We are surviving man one day at a time rite now!
thanks i reversed them on purpose because the other sides of the nobs are getting worn from riding the rocks already. getting my money worth outta them lol
@@trailblogger oh ok awesome i hope to get a raptor this year and make it as wide as yours if you don’t mind what fox shocks did you put on there and what are they specifically for because I know they have a bunch of different ones thank you!
Got my warrior running great thanks to your videos and your reply to my question about the popping noise from intake, raised my needle up one more spot so on the second from bottom groove. Thank you! Can't wait to hit the trails! What chain and sprocket set would you recommend for mostly trail riding? I have rear skid plate so no chance of hitting rear sprocket on rocks or stumps.
Nice raptor. I use to have a 15 and looking to get another aport quad but cant decide raptor or yfz this time. Raptor was too tippy for me but how is it widened? I just ride trails but they are pretty wide.
I loved the video, but I have a question why did you put those O-rings where you put the C-clips. Don't the O-rings go on the inner side the same way you removed them? or was that just your personal preference?
TrailBlogger Lol idk if you did it wrong that’s why I asked. I assumed maybe it was your technique. When you were removing the axle the O-rings were on the inner side close to the carrier bearing seal & the C-clip was on the outer side. But when you put it back on I saw you put the them together on the same end. I looked at a video from RaptorGang and he specifies that you put them on the same way you took them out on this video.
I was looking at the parts diagram it showed that the o ring goes on the inside for the brake rotor side but the outside for the sprocket hub side. I could be wrong...
TrailBlogger yea I’m a little confused because I’m looking to do this same upgrade as you did I’m actually buying it right now but I guess I’m gonna go ahead and do it like you did it seems like it works and you were ripping It after so I’ll put it on like that. It looks great by the way the stance is much better.
The rear works fine as it is a reservoir shock from the factory. I didn't change the shock length up front, just added air shocks the stock length with +2 arms
@@aliammoun2012 Welcome, I think there is an extra adjustment on the R model rear shock though so if you can get one of those they are a little better because of the extra setting
@@trailblogger Can you tell a difference when riding when the rotation is backwards? BTW, which tires you looking at getting? The CST Ambush's I have now I think are the reason I first crashed and broke my arm. I was thinking about going back to stock tires since a lot of people still have them on.
It was hard to tell because of the angle of the video but did you put the Washer that goes between the wheel hubs and the castle nut. I can’t tell if you did but if you didn’t is it not necessary for this Tusk axle set up. I’m asking because I’m gonna purchase this axle bar.
Hey I have a question does the 1987 warrior 350 have a rev limiter? If not my warrior keeps bogging out at top speed I don’t think it’s my jets because I’ve jetted it a million and one times I can only top out at 65 and I have a lot of mods to make it go faster. Do you know what it could be?
I'm not sure! 65 is not bad for a warrior. What jets are you using? Stock carb? Does it backfire or die a lot? The only rev limiter I know of is the one on the clutch perch for the parking brake. It retards the engine if it senses the parking brake is engaged I believe. I eliminated mine by chopping the wires to it and twisting them together to bypass the failing switch
Are you fine? no more videos?? Did you measure how much wide is your front end? It looks like its more than +2 on each side with the New shocks and A-arms. I what gear are you doing the wheelies after the turns? Thx!
I'm good. New videos will be back soon. Thank you for asking :-) its +4 overall and a bit wider when squatted own. Most of the wheelies in this video were second gear throttle up. Some third gear clutch ups.
@@dlachioma hope you get it on there! It has been awhile but if I remember right it was a very tight fit and I think I hesitated at first thinking that's not gonna fit too
Nice one dude thank you. Is there any after market shocks that will lower the raptor height, I'm from uk and use mine on the roads , looked at the lowering kits which just bolt on to the bottom of a arms but seen mixed reviews. Just wondered if there was any decent shocks out there new that would work.
Being an absolute newb to quads...I don't think I would recommend a 700 as a starter. Hell any size can kill ya but a 700 can get you in trouble faster than say a 250. You crash on a 250, you likely weren't going THAT fast so you may be less injured. The 700 is fast, meaning you'll probably going twice as fast when you get thrown off it. I hadn't really crashed a quad in 2 years since I started (rode dirtbikes since a kid though) unless you count that one time my 250 leaned over too far and I just put my foot down to push it back over... No, my first crash broke my left arm pretty badly (from what I'm told). Although you do not see it happen, you can see how fast I was going when it happened if you browse my videos. There is also a fresh rollover that happened this weekend too. Not trying to snag viewers, my channel sucks, but you can at least see what happens if you crash on one of these.
i have one on my raptor, and its giving hard time to the bearings, i dont race, and carrier is brand new but my last bearing set only lasted like 3 rides, do you know what is the torque spec for the big jam nut? i was careful to not overtight it but i killed 2 sets of bearing in no time
You should have a cylindrical tube inside your carrier that acts as a spacer between the 2 bearings. No matter how hard you tighten the axle nut, it won't have any effect on the bearings themselves. If that's missing you will go through bearings quick
Video is awesome I’m about to start making my 2019 Raptor wider. I think I’m going with alba just like you did and just putting spacers on the back till I can come up with more money for the axle. Are u still liking there a-arms ? How do u feel about the drw stuff ? I been looking at there sprocket and brake protector but I’m not sure how good it would protect here in Tennessee there a lot of rock riding. Do you think it would work as good as a regular skid plate does ?
He offers a skid plates to go with those. I just haven't added it yet. I love my albas. Have them on my 08 raptor for 5 years now no problems even when my wife decided to send it and cartwheeled Bruiser down the side of the mountain.
Hey man i just got a 2019 700rse and im looking at the alba and hmf exhaust/tune setup. Do you have any reccommendations? The alba seems to be priced better but im a little nervous about having a permanent tune on my ecu. Any advice is appreciated, thanks
Hey man. What size rear tires do you think you will go with. 20x10-9 or 20x11-9? I'm struggling with this right now. I went 20x11 and noticed a slight decrease in acceleration with the wider tires so I changed my rear sprocket to a 40 tooth to get the extra torque. 1st gear is pretty useless tho
Then now I just bought ITP holeshots 20x10 and can't decide if I made the right buy switching back to the 10. Not sure if I'm gonna like it when I widen the bike identical to yours on Thursday
Yo nice videos bro. Im in the market for a new bike. I have been riding a DS650 for years and want something close to it. Have you ever rode one and if you have is the Raptor close to it?
ive never even seen one in real life lol. they look pretty burly, cant really compare though sorry. only other large quad i would consider is a can am renegade but they are $$$$$$ and i like the sport quad feel with gears more than a massive utility machine with 4x4 and automatic. 1000cc 91hp moonsters though
@@trailblogger Yeah I wanted to stay with can am but those bikes aren't much cheaper than the maverick. A lot of people don't think the DS is fast. Stock it is a tad bit like an elephant but when I threw on a dual looney tunes, carb and intake I would take out cammed Honda 450's if they didn't know how to work the clutch. Im in Arizona where it's mainly open desert and a whole lotta dirt, rocks, rivers, washes and holes so the size of the bike is no problem for our trails. The bike lacked absolutely no power in the Glamis dunes and China wall was a blast. I have seen a few videos on the 2020 raptor talking about how the bike feels like it looses power on top end and it feels squirmy at high speed. Thats keeping me from spending $10k on a new toy. Thanks for getting back to me so fast!
yeah in stock form the raptor is pretty corked up but with the big 3 it wakes up. i admit i bought mine more for the low end, not much use for top end here with the rocky winding trails. the stock suspension sucked because i bought the base model, still feels top heavy compared to banshee or yfz but a ton of torque. going a little stiffer on my shocks might help but i love to leave them soft for long rides, get that nice cadillac feeling lol
Have you had any issues with the big axle nuts loosening up? (The ones you tightened with the adjustable wrench and the pipe wrench.) I’ve heard a few people say you have to tighten them every so often because they come loose
Fresh cut grass is actually great traction. I had the tire pressure down also for maximum traction so I could pull some wheelies. Trust me it would dig a double trench no problem but I was trying not to tear up my back yard lol
New axle and sprockets guard are pretty sweet , that things turning into an animal !
I'm loving it more and more! Thanks!
Lmao that’s my brothers bike! As you can see by my profile picture it’s the same kfx seen in the vid
I’m glad you cut the comments back on I just finished installing mine like an hour ago had to watch your video to learn how to do it
I accidentally set everything to kids only and it turned off all the comments. Was not on purpose. Thanks for watching!

Every day your Raptor looks better
thank you! she is getting there!
Great job TrailBlogger! Good choice of music too for the video!
Thank you!
Their good axles. I've been running mine for over a year now with no problems. Even when I land jumps kinda sketchy, it holds up.
That raptor is killer looking! I like the black and the green.
Thank you!
Great video👍 I definitely wish they would make a 48 to 50 inch raptor that would be so much more stable
WowWe! She's looking super wide now! Haha! I can imagine handling is much better now! Congratulations to the winner! He's got a nice looking bike too!
Looks so stable 👍🏻
It definitely is! About a football field wide now but she rides great!
Enjoy it :) I’m still waiting on houser to send me the +2 a arms I ordered combining them with the rpm extended rear axle been 2 weeks now
Really appreciate the very clear and well recorded video. You saved my ass today!

Great video man hope your doing ok w all this craziness going on!
I had one on my old yfz and it did good other than the lock screw loosening up now and then.
Hope you are staying safe over there also! I saw you have a new build video up, planning to watch it soon just been crazy busy
TrailBlogger yup i remember the same think w the kfx’s haha thats funny! I think back then those axles were like 199.99 it was quite the deal! Ya part one is up let me know what ya think! We are surviving man one day at a time rite now!
Raptor is sharp man
aye thanks man, she is no hellcat Banshee though lol
Sick upgrade! Honestly gives the quad much better performance!
Killer vid as always! I see the beginnings of a pretty cool home track there.
I've got about an acre back there to mess with but most of it is covered in blackberries and brush, need to get it cleared off then it's on!
That is the sweetest Raptor ever nice job bro
That exhaust tho 🔥🔥🤯

these vids help alot appreciate it I you noticed you put the wheels on the wrong side
thanks i reversed them on purpose because the other sides of the nobs are getting worn from riding the rocks already. getting my money worth outta them lol

Hi Mate just wondering where you got your decal kit from? love you ATV Bro its mint!!!!!
So to remove the sprocket you just pushed it back a bit to expose the lock?
Thanks I learned allot.

Where can you find the thing that go on the axle to make it wider
Came with the tusk axle. Wider axle is better than spacers

quick question , Is that what Mx Quads use nowadays ? pls let me know thanks
this i built mainly for trails and riding, they do race these in the baja series but for mx it is the yamaha yfz450r that dominates

I ALMOST GOT A 700R BEFORE MY 19 YFZ450R WHICH ONE DO YA ENJOY MORE?
I have only owned a carbed YFZ450 (which I sold) loved how agile it was but the power of the 700 is addicting.
TrailBlogger dang man. You left the yfz world:( are you going more trail riding is that why you got the 700?
yeah but i still want a yfz also now lol
i have a YFZ 350 twin still though :-)
You like the raptor over the banshee?
Does anybody have an issue with the wheel hub nuts coming loose ?
Thats graphics are oem ??
no. i did a video where i wrapped it
How much wider does it make it?
it depends on how you place the spacers
what grease did you use on the master chain link?
Just some random red chassis type grease in a tube I use for ball joints and bushings etc. think it came from autozone.
Is that stock raptor rims?
yes, stock rims (for now)
Hey dude what a arms you got?I like how you got it looking low profile, noticed the fox shocks on it which are looking awesome. 😎

That rear axle is a little to tight
Why do you say that
@@trailblogger maybe its a raptor thing but i feel it should spin alot more freely
Fresh cut grass is actually great traction. I had the tire pressure down also for maximum traction so I could pull some wheelies. Trust me it would dig a double trench no problem but I was trying not to tear up my back yard lol
Those front tires gonna last a while if u only use them to turn! lol
LOL! I couldn't help it. So much fun
Nice thinking bout making my 2020 Raptor wide once I put my big 3 on next week... Did you keep the stock swing arm with extended axle? 👀
yes because wheelies are fun lol
Put some Maxxis Razr 2s on and it will be perfect... I mean it’s perfect now but you know what I mean
These stock tires are 🐎 💩
TrailBlogger agreed
TrailBlogger ever raced a kfx 700 before?
