I have a G Force axle on its narrowest setting. How do you adjust it to make it wider? Do you need a certain tool or anything?

Did you buy it new or from somebody? It comes with spacers to bring out your hubs.

yep. it should have 4 different spacers. 2 wide and 2 narrower. they go on the axle first then put the hub on. if you dont have the spacers that came with it, im sure you can either get some made or buy some fairly cheap. i have spares but thats just what they are incase i need them.

Keep in mind thst you have to leave the two smaller riings inside the hubs at all tiimes. That's +2 which is the G forces narrowest setting. When you move the other two to the inside as well, you,ll be at +4.

Are these spacers always on the axle. Is it just adjusting them. I bought this axle used from a guy that never used it and I am trying to see if I have any missing parts.

yes, the spacers need to be on the axle the whole time. you should have 2narrow spacers and 2wider spacers. to make the axle wider put both spacers on the inside and the hubs on the outside of the axle then put your nuts on.

What trailrider said will put you at +4. Remember though that on the G-Force you have to ALWAYS leave the 2 smaller spacers inside the hubs. It's a must per RMATV tech., and that will leave you at +2 which is its narrowest setting.

if you can't find a set to buy somewhere hit the hardware store for some sleeves or something

i just got my G-force axle in last night and i like it. i have only gone around the yard on it but i like it. also, like the other guy, i didnt want to go that wide all the time because i ride the woods mostly so i put the small spacer on then the hub and then the big spacer. i have ITP T9 rims so they are flat unlike the stock rims at the lug hole. so i flipped them around and im back to almost stock width with the ability to go wider when i want. if only i could do some thing like that on the front.
