I am guessing that you can make it work, but it will probably suck....

NO they will not work they are way to wide for a 400ex frame and the width of the arms are also a little off.

dont get them.

He definately has 450r a-arms. But the frame had to be cut and extended to make everything work good. The setup is awesome and works like a dream. He is running works 400 tripple rates with a relocater bracket. There is pics in the Sport Quad Under 350cc section.

He is going to make them use lonestar ball joints to get full adjustment out of them.

Once the front mount was moved up it made it something like +3 +1

insert foot in mouth :( I will have to say thats a first, not many people willing to do that frame work to make a set of a-arms fit. But it looks pretty good
