will a set of 250r leagars a-arms and pep zps shocks work on a 400ex... i found a really good deal... they are set up for 170 to 180 lbs rider on a 250r and i am about 145 to 150 with gear on a 400ex would that be right...

jeff@quadshop u would probably know the best if i could use them?????

if the a-arms won't work will the shocks??

if you get plus 2 aarms those shocks will probably be ideal, maybe 5 or 10 pounds too soft, i am running 250r shocks for 165#, and i am 160, they only botton out when i land really bad off a big jump

I don't think the 250R arms will mount up without doing some fabricating..:( The shocks should be OK..

the shox prob will work, 400ex's work on a R, so why not, but im thinkin the R a-arms mount a lil wider than the Ex a-arms do, or vise versa, fabircatin could fix em

The Shocks will work but I am sure the A-Arms won`t just bolt up. You will need to do some work for them to fit. You could just get the Shocks and then get new A-Arms.
