the stem bearing is the same as the stock trx chassis... the swinger is the stock ones as well... the question is... is it a 86 87 or a 88 /89?

thats the FLP for in teh chassis? i have a ddt but thats some sort of light weight mx chassis for a no-link... or something...

[step869]

ok u lost me im new to building quads have built tons of bikes
this had prp stickers on this frame and swingarm and steering stem its a no link chassis

[woodsracer144]

i think you can run a CRF link as well the way the mount is in the back of the chassis ( between the foot peg mounts know where im talkin about) and the mount for the swing arm as really close to the front as well..

[step869]

i sold this quad a while back w/ elkas on it when i boght it back had a fox preditor shock on it wow........

what yr bearings do i order for the swinger???? im assumeing 86-87 beacuse 86 and 87 piviot bolt went through the engine

[step869]

thanks,
john

[woodsracer144]

im geussin your right on the 86 87.. but i would call dave up at prp and ask just to be safe... i'll get you his number later on today.

[Sandsjbyz22]

That's a Frontline Performance Chassis. They were based out of Youngstown, Ohio. The frame is basically a laeger copy. If you have any older issues of ATVsport they had an ad in the back with a picture and you will the front frame rail has FLP engraved in it.

[deathman53]

the 250r swingarm bearing are the same, along with the cap and dust seals. The difference between 85-87 and 88/89 is the number of dust seals, end caps and the center collar(s) that ride in the swingarm. No, in 85-87 swingarm didn't ride inside the motor, the rear motor mount went between the 2 swingarm sides.

I don't think so. I used to race with the guys who owned FLP around here and I remember when they first brought the frame to the track.

[step869]

thanks for all the replies and help my 2006 crf 450x motor came in today so im gonna start asm set up for xc

thanks,
john

[frontline perfr]

your frame will use the stock ste, bearing for any year 250r ...we at frontline would like to know where u got your frame and any other frontline parts and give use feed back on them ,,,,,, e mail us at frontlineatv at aol or we can chat in the forum we plan to be back stronger than ever for the 09 season ...thanks

[frontline perfr]

frontline was out of youngstown ohio and still is ,,,,, and was never a part of prp ,,,,,,,,,as far as being the same as a leager...they are very very close why not they where the best and u can only improve on something so much .....we are still around and still love racing

[step869]

will do

thanks for the help im in the middle of building my crf450z motor into a crf510x i also think i have a front line swingarm and steering stem

[frontline perfr]

so where did u get it at

[step869]

i traded a 2004 yfz450 about 3 years back for it had a few motor problems and got pissed off and sold it then got it back on trade for a stock 250r

not going anywhere now going to go right thru her setting it up for xc

[step869]

the only reason i said it was a prp is because of all the prp stickers on the frame swingarm and stem

[frontline perfr]

no thats a frontline for sure i know the swing arms ....i see my old tt/x bike on here that someone just bought with a 265 motor i build that is a great bike almost not breakable

[woodsracer144]

i dont know do... i know for a fact that that mout set up is just like PRP! and the stickers are there too... this is a little weird... my front motor mounts are the same as those...

and alot of small things look the same as well.. 0_o....:huh

[Sandsjbyz22]

PRP never had FLP engraved in the front shock tower.

[step869]

i see this now i just dont know why some1 has stuck prp stickers all over the frame

does front line make a steering stem and swing arm????
if not i wonder if stickers came with them and were just stuck to frame

thanks for all the help guys

does any 1 know what size shock eye 2 eye i can run on this (all the good parts were striped off when i got it back)

i am going to be running harescrambles on this quad what is a good shock set up front and back it has a no link set up in the rear i also dont know if that can be changed or whats better

thanks in advance,
john

what you have to do is set the chassis on about a 1 in block(a 2/4 is fine) your tryin to make is sit like you are bottoming out and then you have to put the chassis at about a 10 inch block i think.. you want to make it so there would be no pressure on the tires and then take that measurement eye to eye and then tell us or me what that is and i can get it to you...

do you still have the rear shock in there? that came on it... how long is it?

[step869]

i kinda lost what ya were talking about on the block deal

the guy i sold it to parted out my rear shock and front shocks
when i got it back it had a preditor fox shock on it

no lie i could pick the rear of the quad up over my head and the tires still touching the ground it was in a L shape

I remember this quad being for sale a few years ago and the ad said it was a frontline frame and prp went through it nd did a few things to it, hence why it had prp stickers. Hope this helps you guys.

Thanks,
Mike

[woodsracer144]

ok i'll give it another shot but if you dont under stand it this time let me know and i'll PM you my number and that way i can just explain it to you

the 2x4 bock would make it like it would be bottomed out and then with no weight on the shocks like when you jump it... that would be on a 12 inch block... have all the shocks un bolted when you do this with tires on it.. let me know if this helps you...

[step869]

ok im still a lil lost
but the quad is still at a bare frame to it will be closer to the end of winter be its ready to do this........

thanks,
john

[woodsracer144]

well once you get it to about a rolling chassis let me know and i'll help you out...

[step869]

thanks alot bro
