|  As you can see on the right truck one axel is longer than normal and the other is shorter? I thought ytrucks didn't have single axels? and I've tried pushing the longer side back through like you do with brrs and they won't budge. Has this happened to anyone else or what.. |

| ive noticed the axles on ys differ on some of them a tiny amount...not really enough to notice, but ive never seen one that far out.....and ys do have single axles?....i dont think pushing it/hitting it with a hammer is gonna do much though? |

| http://www.ytrucks.com/blog/entry/4Single axle. Says so on their site. It seems the axle has shifted to one side, something should be able to make it move, but, you'd risk breaking your trucks in doing so  Just email pics to Ytrucks and hope they reply  |

| I have had a few sets of y's, and all of em have had an axle off to some degree, but never that bad...I would try to put washers on the short side and tighten a nut to draw it back, but be careful to not put too much pressure on it so u don't strip the threads... |

| Just like 1 or 2 to fill up the extra space... Yeah, I guess it goes along with being handmade, unlike a BRR or TD...
Anyone know when they will be instock BTW? |
