razor pro forks problems

my forks have been alright in the past. but now they suck dick, and piss me off so much,
my front axle is always coming loose, and the wheel tilts with the space around it, the wheel then scrapes the fork and runs really slow.
whenn i tighten the axle, it eventually comes loose
and when tightened, the wheel barely spins

does anyone have any ways to resolve my problem?

thanks

Get some new bearings and lube them up then tighten the shit out of the axel. Well, not to tight but you know, within reason. Thats what I would do

I have the same problem execpt with Ultra Pro forks, it is annoying, you tighten it, then it goes really slow, but if you loosen it, it gets looser and then the wheel scraps then you have to tighten it to the slow, its AMAZINGLY weird how the bolt just dosen't stay tightened, :(

maybe a new axle and ----- but yeah my bearings are being bitches atm, too much rain, so lubing them might help them spin, so they spin when tight

my friend said some shit about a blue powder compound, that comes on bike axles, so they dont come loose, like a locknut kind of thing,

OK its not the fork it is the axle get some lock tight for screws and put it on the screw bit of the axle its hell good. You know wen you get a new axle and it has blue stuff on the screw its basically that.

put spacers inside your bearings, then when you tighten it it wont effect your bearing performance, and wont be slow and that will allow you to tighten them as tight as you need
