Default Yaffe Yaxle

Has anyone here purchased and installed the Paul Yaffe "Yaxle?" And if so are you pleased with it?

I just had my whole front end powder-coated black and looking to either install black axle caps or the yaxle. Just trying to get some feedback on the yaxle.

Thanks in advance!

I have the chrome one. I found a deal on Ebay. I didn't do the install. I like the way it looks.

I just looked at my instructions and I have to agree with you. Where they tell u to do this is for the cap studs. This WILL sheer the studs off.....dont ask how I know.

I'm getting ready to install mine soon. Instructions that I have say to torque the end caps to 40 ft lbs and the pinch nuts to 15-18 ft lbs. What should the proper torque values be?
