250w/ 400ex front end

[hon265mxer]

hey i got a 250x and i bought 400ex a-arms i was gonna make that bracket but i dont trust it for big jumps, i heard someone saying that all u need is a 15 inch shock, i know works makes them is it for a blaster ?, if not what is it for

Here is mine with a set of 400EX arms. it sits a bit high, but not too terrible. I used 250R shocks. Same as the 400EX shocks. I plan on modifying the lower a-arms, instead of cutting up my frame or using add-on brackets. I should start on the mods this week, I will post pics as I get into it for anyone else that wants to attempt it too. I have no idea if it will work, but somebody has to experiment, may as well be me. :devil

Im planning on doing the same thing as you. What mod to the a-arm do you need to do?
Thanks

I am going to cut the original lower shock mounts out, and fabricate some new ones that should let the bottom of the shock mount about 1 1/2" to 2" lower in the a-arm. That should get the frontend down where I want it. Still planning and lookin at it. Not sure if I wanna start the project and mess ***** up before my trip to DirtWeek in June.

I raced a whole MX season on mine and never had a problem with the durability. thats about 25 races in 5 months. heres some pics. www.geocities.com/quadrcr4/350x
