ok i have been reading for a while now and cant find a definate answer?
1)will the 400ex front shocks bolt up to the stock 250x a arms with the kit u buy on ebay without changing the camber?

2)Will the 400ex a arms and shocks bolt directley up to the 250x frame without any modificatins? would u still need the kit on ebay?

3)will the 2001 raptor rear shock bolt on my 250x without any modifications?no kits u have to buy or anyhting?

Thank you for all your help on clearing me and many others up on this topic.

you would need the shock kit on ebay,(shock relocator) to do the 400ex a-arms and shocks. You would also need them for the 400ex shocks on 250x.(this might be rough riding) And yes raptor rear shocks do fit the 250x and 300ex.( You just need to mount the rezzie for it.) Hope this helps.

1. Yes
2. No and you will need the mounting bracket BUT...using the 400ex arms will create some handling problems.
3. Yes
