They will if you change the bushings. The TRX250 frame mount width is 2.050" and the 400EX is 1.732". Other then that they should work fine.

If you change the bushings and sleeves they will work.

are the 400 a arms wider than the 250? just wondering what the advantage of switching would be

The 400's are about 1/4 narrower at the frame mount.You can just make 1/8" spacers for each side and use the 400 bushings.

BTW,Rockman,the arms are basically identical,just you can find aftermarket 400 arms easier and usually cheaper than the R arms.Alot of people use them on Rs with the spacers because they are easier to get.
