My main shaft came unturned at 25mm, but I turned it myself to 20mm (it gave me something to do fun cause this product installs way too easy) I would highly recommend getting this 4th wheel kit because it really does help a LOT with the inside ski lift. I am extremely impressed with the HIGH quality an ease of installing this. the company says 30 min....I say 10 if your sled is well maintenanced. I will definitely be purchasing the forward wheel as well. Job well done and keep the new products coming.

Excellent Fit and Finish.

The OEM Arctic Cat rear axle is a thin gauge steel tube. The axle included with this kit is solid, annodized aluminum round stock. The tolerances for bearing fit are very close and the stainless, nylon type locknuts for the track tension adjuster bolts are pressed into the axle. This makes any on trail adjustments that much easier.
There are a few tips I would include if I wrote them out.
1) The included instruction sheet recommends you use the new axle to "push" the OEM axle out. This will work, however, since the new axle is aluminum and the OEM axle is steel, you may slightly damage the new axle if you're OEM axle is stubborn. I would recommend removal of the OEM axle by other means (drift,dowell,etc.) first. This will also allow better inspection of the OEM wheel bearings and spacers.
2) When performing the final tightening of the bolts on either end of the new axle, I would use a couple drops of blue or red thread locker.
Good luck and skis down.
