best axle carriers?

[Firechicken]

hands down who has the best aluminum axle carriers?

i have the red rpm's in the front and arms in front and rear. i keep popping the pillow balls out and its getting old

[littlefoot]

i just changed my front rpms to the hr aluminum..so far so good...rears are staying rpm as they seldom pop out

fyi... they are also referred to as knuckles by other companies

[RC-Fan]

I like the gpm, nice and smooth fit.

[Petertje60]

+1 for GPM.

[hav24wheel]

I swapped HRs on mine. Love them. Except can't seem to find replacement o rings for the pillow ball locks.

[jimbo74]

gpm for the win...... much better than my rpms that constantly popped out, and had some slop, or they would bind

[sftr]

HR alluminum fronts, RPM on the rears. No probs at all

[Maus]

HR. They provide a bit more adjustibility.

[khanphelan]

OMG GPM or HR???? what is the difference? they both seem really good

Both are good, but some people find the HR hard to install.

[MurdockBaracus]

HR all around on mine. Didnt have any problems on install other than when screwing the caps on a couple of them got a little tight towards the end but gave a nice tight fit eliminating slop.

So are the RPMs not that great? I have a set on the rear and they have been good for the short time I have had them...My stock fronts are getting loose so soon I will be needing a set for the front....should I stay with RPM since the rears are already that?

Im running HR on my MERV. Had an issue with 1 of the pivot ball retainer screws (the last one of 8 go figure) but it has held so far. don't know if i will ever get it out though, if i do it wont go back in haha

it is up to you, i ran rpm all around, until i kept having problems with them...... so i replaced them with gpm alloy..... gpm because hr has quality issues with their anodizing and hte threads not fiting properly, and i wasn't going to chance it with a $20 pair of knuckles, when hte gpm had no issues comparatively..... on my rpms, i popped the front knuckles out every run, multiple times, and it got old, and also one of the knuckles got an elongated, ovalized hole to hole the bearing, and they jsut didn't fit tight t all. now for a-arms, NOBODY can touch rpm

[slash-4x4]

I, like many other people had RPMs installed and changed to alloy because of the pivot balls popping out. I changed them to HR. However I feel like they are either too tight and it hurts the up and down travel or they feel loose. Havent found a sweet spot like with the RPMs where its tight not still moves great. Some graphite or teflon spray may fix that???

But Yea They ALL are good VS STOCK. BUT IF i ever buy another pair it will be GPMs to try. Anyone with GPMs have issues with it being too tight or loose?

GPM! Great, I've owned them for around 8 months, not 1 problem from them! Highly reccomend GPM's hubs; adjusting it is easy, and mine don't bind at all.
