1st: So today I was trying to see if there was any thing I could do to help fix my Legacy. I noticed that the opening where the axle goes into was striped on the top. So I looked at my brothers Legacy and noticed that his axle was bigger than the one in mine. When I screwed his half into my broken half it fit perfectly! So i decided that all I need to do was by another axle. I have been trying to take out the short axle from my legacy, but it wont come out. Does anybody know how? 2nd: Does anybody know which size axle would fit in my legacy, but would be a bit longer so I can screw it in? Thanks. ---

Woah… so I’m not the only one. I think you can take an axle with pliers. (Correct me if me I’m wrong.) And for the axles, get the YoYoJam Standard Axle. ---

Thanks! I managed to unscrew the axle a little bit. Now I can screw the yoyo all the way without it slipping out! I forgot how the Legacy played so when I played it again I was amazed! I am sorry I overlooked it. ---

Well I think your post was also informative for me because I think that’s how I should fix my Legacy. ;D ;D ;D ;D ---

Well, I can’t take out the axle using the pliers. Too hard. How did you do it? ---

> [@Vivo](#): > > Well, I can’t take out the axle using the pliers. Too hard. How did you do it? actually I used a wrench. I grabbed the axle with my wrench and squezed as hard as I could. then I slowly turned the legacy. I don’t know if that is much help. ---

I know some of the YYJ axles can be turned with an allen wrench. I would exercise caution when using pliers, I flattened some threads on my DM doing that, and I just ended up buying extra axles ☹ ---

Oh wait, did you took the axle and you put another axle? Because I ordered another axle I was wondering how do you like put in the area where the axle goes in?
