I am going to be putting a spool in my car in a week or two and I have never had a set of c-clip eliminators. Can I run a set of c-clip axles with a spool and c-clip eliminators?:confused:

I'm sorry I meant I have c-clip axles and i'm wondering if c-clip eliminators and a spool will work with them

Don't waste your money, mine always leaked. Have 9" ends welded on and be done with it.

They generally will leak, 9" ends is the way to go.

BTW if u distort the wedding band on a 9" set up which is identical to c clip elims it will leak too. That's wat seal rides on anyways. An ultra black the gaskets

9" ends are the slick set up way better bearings. You can use your c-clip axles with eliminators. You press the elimiators on the axles. Cut your tubes. We use a portable band saw. Install your spool, then bolt your axles in with no c-clips. I have had good luck with loctite gasket eliminator on the seals.
