max IV axle

[TravisW]

Thanks Tom, I don't worry much about wise cracks from a child.
I'm glad he wasn't old enough to vote in the election.
I noticed he still only has 1 friend.
That's to bad.
I think most people know whats going on.
Some people just can't handle the truth.
Did everyone get their Tires yet?????
Don't let him off the hook, go and get them.

If you're insinuating I would have voted for Hillary, dream on. There's no age limit for recognizing a lying, cheating, greedy person who only has their own interest at heart. (See: Politician) What I don't understand is multitudes of people know the truth, I.E. people who are in direct contact with the party in question and/or spend time in and around the shop observing the activities, yet no one is there to voice the truth. Instead we sit and listen to someone who makes their own observations from across the country and promotes it as the undeniable truth.

I have Whip's axles, sprockets and brake disks in 3 of my machines. No issues in 8 years.

I'm genuinely happy to hear you haven't had any trouble, and hope you continue to have a good experience.

There are 2 sides to every story. Gees, Travis, just tried to give the customer what was requested & TESTED by the customer prior to making any more. We were more than happy to inspect & repair anything that failed, but nothing was ever returned. They refused to send anything back Have to assume that they were not all put in the scrap metal bin. Only so much we can do. That happened in March & April of 2009. Doubt anything got much better after that episode or they would not be using 1 1/2 axles now. Our "grudge" as you often call it has nothing to do with axles. Our biggest regret was that we didn't end our relationship 6 months earlier.

I agree wholeheartedly, there are definitely 2 sides to every story. It only becomes an issue when the wrong side of the story gets broadcast around at the expense of a person/group who doesn't deserve the ill opinion they receive. They're not unreasonable people, many people have already attested to that, so if they didn't want to go through the process of having the axles remade I can only presume there were other reasons for their decision. To me the fact that they run 1 1/2" axles doesn't bear much weight as a mark against them. If the axles they used before were having issues, it only makes sense to move to something beefier to ensure you won't have any more problems down the road. You're absolutely right, the "grudge" doesn't revolve around axles, but it stems from the situation(s) that came about from that agreement, and subsequent disagreement that happened so long ago.

Now we've all said our peace, multiple times at this point, and I doubt we'll ever see eye to eye on this matter. So I'll "extend my hand" to you and say I'm ready to give up the bickering if you are. Even if you're not ready to quit, this will be my last post on the subject.

How about if the RIGHT side of the story gets broadcast around? Or is there only truth in what you have been told?

Who's more generous, someone who gives sweet deals or the people/vendors that make those things trying to help & then wait MONTHS to be paid, if ever.

If nothing changes, then nothing changes. And after all these years it appears, nothing has changed. So sad.

OK so we heard one side how come no one on the other side can step up to the plate and tell their side. It's funny you don't hear anything from them.

I think that pretty much sums it up.

Wow, I'll let you know if the axle fits when it gets here lol.

Whipper makes/sells axles!?!?!?!?!

Max II axles are definately longer. I just had to order a new Max IV axle from Max6x6 and they do not have any proper Max IV axles in stock. All they have are a bunch of buchered up hack job axles that were made from shortened Max II axles but they've been shortened too much. They are including some thick washers and clamps for the sprocket so I can cobble it together to make it work. Nice

I'm still trying to figure out why the correct Max IV axle wasn't in stock. NOT ONE? Those Max II axles were probably axles that were rejected by R.I. years ago that were splined too long. The spline stuck out outside the tub past the bearing & would let water in thru the spline. So R.I. never used them. Must be one of those rejected axles that they sent you? Hope they didn't build any new machines with those over the past 3 years.

Nope, not one proper axle in stock. It's possible they tried to salvage some old garbage axles. I was also told that the C-clip grooves have been machined in the wrong locations so I will need to use retainers to keep my sprocket and rotor aligned so I guess the only purpose of the newly machined C-clip grooves is to introduce another weak spot for me. What a gong show.
