i used a newer yz 450 rear master cly on my 350rx

just make a new bracket and you dont have to worry about 20 year old parts any more.

Other options? I know that the TRX450R parts are swapable but not sure how easy the braking system is. Currently I have a 450R swinger and now I need to do the rear brakes, and I need everything from the master to rear caliper. Anyone know if there is a thread on this already? I'll do a search and see what I can find myself and post back if I find it.

Thanks

that is a link to one of the threads I found most helpful, I'd suggest pm'ing one of the guys who said they planned on switching the master and see how it worked out.

I used a 450r cylinder on mine,but i also have a complete 450r swinger, axle setup on mine as well though.The aluminum swingarm is lighter than the steel one,losing weight is the same as adding hp:D
