Has and body put a 400ex frontend on a blaster.

I'm make a project blaster. I was looking at the frame, and thought if I could make a 400ex frontend work on the frame i would ahve a sweet setup for racing cheap.I think I can make it work but I looking any information or thoughts you guys would have.

Never heard of it but anything is possible...

Well if you never heard of it. How would you go about it. Whats problems do you think I would run into.

id say its pretty obvious of the problems you would run into...then a arm mounts on the frame would need cut off and rewelded somewhere else so it would line up...also the shock mount...this isnt a honda to honda conversion ...the front end geometry isnt the same

My buddy is doing this now. The only problem is that we had to make a reamer so that the ball joint will fit. I think he is using the upper a arms and getting them extended by 1. If you need them reamed let me know I'll have the bit pretty soon.

Well I alredy plan to be welding. The lower a-arms mounts to the frame. So iwas think of going off that for where to mount the upper a-arms and shock.

Plus I plan using the splindles and disk brake from the 400ex. Thats way you have a way better stronger front end plus a good brakes. Plus the 400 shocks are like 2 ic longer so I would have to move the shock mount up. I have my 400ex frame apart right now so I can take all the measurment
to get it close on the blaster.
