What should I do, convert my 300 front end to the 400 front end, or just by works dual rate shocks for a little more money.

If you have the extra cash, go with the works. They are sure to ride better then stock 400 shocks

but with the 400 front end you'll be wider and have longer travel si id say to go with that

go with the works front end if you put the 400ex front end on there the shocks are to big so you have to remount them up about 2 inches so just go with the dual rate shocks with plus 2 arms or you could go with a better brand and have the same ride as a 400 would

400ex front end +lowering kit

I think I am going to buy new shocks and keep the stock a-arms, I really want wider arms, but I am going to college and I don't have a lot of cash, I should save the small amount of money that I have, but what the heck.

Buzzsaw, that is one of the tighest 300's I have ever seen. I wish I had mine still, so I could set it up like that. I really dig the plastic too.

Nice, is it ported and polished? That thing must haul ***. How much hp you think you gained on it? Does it beat a 400ex?

what i mean by relocation the shock monts are if u put the 400ex shocks on i think u have to relocate it for them or it will be sitting way to high and with trible rates you have to
Buzzsaw
10-13-2002, 01:37 PM
Yes its ported and polished, i really cant say yes it beats 400, but on the track i will say yes Ive beat 400's but Ive all so been beat by 400s it's fast though

Thats sweet Buzzsaw.

With my setup I didnt have to relocate the shock mounts because I used 250R shocks
