400ex cylinder sleeve

[chucky797]

so it was about time that something broke on the turboed 400ex. i was riding and i deatonated the motor and the piston broke apart and messed up the sleeve also. is there any way for me to just get a stock sleeve. i talked to a local shop and they said i needed the to buy the who cyl. set up.

look for someone who's done a 440 kit like myself. i had to replace my stock sleeve for the bigger one to accept the 440 size piston and i still have my stocker in a box along with the piston.

yea,, i would stay away from that shop... yea you can buy just the sleeve...

[chucky797]

yea i am not letting the shop even look at it. i have it at my house ripped apart. i have a piston already. i just need the sleeve. how much are you willing to sell it for if you want to

[honda300EXtreme]

hey.. i dont know if your interested but i have the stock cylinder in the jug... it does need bored out but ill let it go cheap..

if you already have a piston for it and want a new sleeve look into lasleeve. i think they have any kind of sleeve you are looking for. i dont know their web site but look in the back of any dirtwheels magazine. they are advertised in there.

Yes LA sleeve is a great place that's were i got the sleeve for my 426ex and yes they can make a sleeve size for just about anything and their turnaround time was great a little pricey but you usually get what you pay for...

There's a circlip on each end of the wrist pin. Remove them and slide out the wrist pin.

1st off I have seen the turbo 400ex but never one that someone besides the company that made it owned. I'm curious to see what it looks like.
