| So im looking to buy me a 2008 rhino that has the badass long travel kit on it. it is the 6.5" kit my question is if i break an axle how hard is it goin to be for me to find a replacement since badass is no longer in business. will the long travel industry axles work. If I know i can get axles for it im pretty sure its going to end up in my garage. thanks for the help | |

| lsr makes a +6.5 kit so I dont see why any +6.5 wouldnt work. I dont have special +6 axles and never had a problem. you will love the LT | |

| I have 6.5 long travel kit that I have no idea how makes it and I have gorilla axles and you have to tell u have 6.5 and not 6 because there is a difference in length. even when I went to the rackzilla steering rack I had to special order it because the first one I got was to short made for 6" kit. but I don't have a problem getting them. I love my long travel kit. its like a caddilac threw the bumps and pot holes barely feel them the suspension eats them up. you can ride way longer without getting wore out. my 2 cents. | |

It would take me a year to clear one trail wide enough even with that saw (i have a much bigger one as well as many small ones biggest being a 48" bar 72cc husqvarna). Both of you guys live in what i call "open" riding area | |

| I know what you mean chuddly, I would love to have a mid travel setup but if you look at the sides of my Rhino you would see why it would never work, i barely fit now. This is also why I wouldnt even consider a Viking. | |

mine is the same way....scratched and scraped to no end...but that's cool. I just run it hard and when it looks bad enough I will repaint it. | |
