I'm just wondering, what size nuts and bolts should i stock up on for my 400ex? like so i have spares especially at the races.

I mean if i have to, ill go take some off and get extra's but if someone know's that'd be awesome.

My tire and hub came off in a practice before the races 2 weeks ago, and i didn't have anything with me so i had to rush to home depot to get a castle nut, not knowing the size, i grabbed 5 or 6 and luckily one was correct, but i forgot what size it is, and i want to get 4 of the right size every bolt and nut so i am prepared again if this happens, thanks guys.

8mm 10mm 12mm covers majority of the basics on frame and body I do believe. You can buy kits from places like Rockymountainatv.com, that come with piles of spares bolts sized for your quad.

alright thanks guys, i know its a weird thing to ask, but i dont need a hub falling off again and have to rush out to home depot again next time i might not be so lucky since we run past 10pm

one other thing, how long should i get these? like from 3/4' to 1 1/2'?

fine or coarse threads?
