Has anyone upgraded rear axle adjusters on their X-18?

[rene13]

I was wondering if anyone has upgraded their rear axle adjusters on an X-18?
I was thinking using these with some shaping they might work but I wonder if the axle hole is the same size?

Good find. The axle adjusters on my bike are nowhere near as accurate as I would like. Those are now on the list.

I could make them fit. The axle hole is what I'm wondering if it fits. If it doesn't I could make some spacers.thumbsup2

Anybody found axle spacers already done? I can do it but with a lot of work (No lathe). If not how about a cheap source of bar stock aluminum? I looked on Ebay but there are no deals there except for large batch buys. I need enough for spacers front and front that's it. So 1 1/2 inches diameter at most and about 12" long?

I know I have seen some bar stock on ebay. Round or square?
