New Rear End

[Stickman400]

Well if you guys can remember I had to replace my Durablue anti-fade hub because it seized together and I had to use a cutting torch to get it off and ruined it in the process. Then I ordered an LSR unit and it was 1/8" too wide and I culdn't get the snap ring on. So I ended up getting a Team RPM anit-fade hub and it fit. I also decided to go all out and get a brand new Team RPM MX +1/+4 Dominator II axle with the race hub since my old Durablue was slightly bent and I didn't feel like spending another $50 to have them take 2 months and do nothing to it, plus the sprocket hub side was grooved pretty bad from the bearings rubbing it. So in the end I got a completely new rear end. New tapered RAD axle carrier that I got anodized red to match my color scheme, a new RPM anti-fade hub, and a new RPM Dominator II axle with race hub. I figure that's about the best rear end setup that money can buy for a 400ex besides a new swinger. I also smothered everything in Loc-Tite anti-seize to make sure it didn't seize up ever again. Here's a few pics, I also took a couple of my 450 since it was nice out today and I had them both out "testing" them out.;) I love how the color schemes are almost perfectly opposite of each other, I bought the 450 just like that and it's almost exactly the way I want it. I can take few different angles if anyone wants 'em.

Looking good bro!

Looks great! I wish I would have gone with rpm instead of LSR :rolleyes:

I've got a full LSR setup on the back of the 450, aswell as an LSR stem. The axle has a slight bend in it but I'll deal with it for now, the carrier and bearings are still in good shape though so it's good for awhile.

Looks clean!


But Didn't that 450r have MX tires all around with hipers on it?

Looks great, but is that carrier in correctly? Where are the adjustment wholes?

[BlasterEaten250]

Good looking quads!

Thanks for the compliments guys. Tactical, it has the same front tires but CF1 rims instead of Tech 3s, but I like to ride the trails around my house every now and then so I put the rear Razrs off the 400 on it. I guess I kinda lied when I said I bought it just like that. I have changed a few things on it, but nothing major, just small things. Threewits it's in correctly, I just run my carrier flipped 180° because my caliper will contact the frame rail if I run it in the normal position.
