Tried duct tape but then I finally found something long enough to fit in axle hole and sure enough I popped it out!! Thanks man
There’s at least two kinds of axle set-ups. Set scre and the bolt and nut. It can make a BIG difference.
I love the look of the caps off myself!
looks more refined! 
I feel like the caps make it louder then it is. It could be just me tho, but any throw besides my new breed which I can’t get caps off of. I have always taken out caps. Only ever had severe DM2 and new brew with caps. I don’t really like plastics/hybrids
