Will 400EX A-Arms fit on a 300EX? Also will the shocks mount up to the stock T-Bar on the 300EX? Thanks.

Yes it will hre are the exact stuff you need to make them fit.

You will need 400ex upper /lower arms with tierods
THat will be a direct replacement on the 300

As for the 400ex shocks you need a custom mount for them fit proably, they run about 50 bucks. Here is a picutre for it below. and your set.

I have a stock axle. Works will build you Dual Rates w/ no rezzies for 400ex a-arms for 320, triple rates w/ no rezzies around 350 i think, and dual w/ rezzies is around 500 like buzzsaw said

live2ride, it seems your rear wheels are sticking out more and your wider? you have spacers or anyhing?

No I dont have spacers or an extended axle. I think it looks like that because my Razrs are 20x11x9, their 11inches wide and stock tires are a little skinnier.

how much wider does the "extended" 400EX A ARMS make i with the stock width axle? i don't have money right now but i plan on doing a durablue or lsr axle and some 400ex a arms or 300ex extended or 400ex extended. what should i do to keep it in a reasonable budget

have fun, go blow 450$ on some a-arms for a 300...the wya i see it the 300 isnt worth it, it is nice to have a 300 that is sweet, but there isnt enoguh for me

the reason I talk like this is becasue the 300ex at the moment is jsut pissing me off so damn much that I am selling in next weekend if everything goes right

justin or anyone that wants to do this, 400ex a-arms are exactly 3 inches wider than the stock set-up
to get extended 400 or 300 arms is a very dumb idea unless you like pissing money away, jsut get the regular 400 arms, with those works 14.75in shocks, for someone whose 15 going on 16, i realized how dumb it really was to blow money on this pos...

sorry not meaning to get offensive jsut venting and actaully coming to my senses...it makes me shake my head when i see kids like me blowing money on thigs that jsut arent worth it, I would like all of you to give it up and sell it and buy something worth putting your hard earned money into

well then why buy a 4-wheeler? since theres all these other 4-wheelers coming out and they are geting beter every year!!! ten its a waste of money matter what you do!!
do dont ****en go around telling people that they should sell there 300's!! if a 10 year old had a 300ex and was to put like 2 grand into it, would you tell him that hes wasting his money?

300exrider,

Why would I be pissing away my money when I am done with my 400ex front end on my 300. I mean I very much enjoy the 300ex, I like it because of the reverse feature compared to the 400ex. I wantt eh front end because of a nice wider stance and more travel length.
I havent' raced nor do I intend to race with this quad. Everything that we do is a waste of money. you buy soemthing today it's gonna be a waste next year, and then you are going to say, all man this quad sucks i want to get a newer one, i need more power. power this power that.

It's one thing to get a custom made one so you can't complain I need more power, but not many people can afford that with thir hard earn money.

Just' my .02

i knew i was going to get it if I said that:D :rolleyes:



All I am saying is that many kids blow their money on something they wont keep for a good while, I am just saying think about it before you invest it a lot of hard earned money

if you have the money, great go for, its great to have a badass quad, if not, do your best since you prob dont have neough to get something bigger anyways

good luck, i know some 8th grader planning to get works all around and all this stuff for his 250ex, come on man, enjoy it, have fun, sell it and get something bigger and then start putting money into it

like getting a hatchback honda civic, and putting a lot of money into it...or get a camero and save lots of money in the long run


either way go for it, but I am going for something a bit bigger
the 300 just doesnt have it, very nice machine but just aint worth it to ME. just ask TRXthumper...sold it, bought a sweet as hell 400, and regrets ever putting money into it
