for the shocks you need to relocate the top mount up a little bit. search for 250x on ebay and their usually about 20-30 bucks their just a shaped piece of metal.



as far as the axle goes...i would like to know too

The axle wont fit, it would fit if you had a 400ex bearing carrier, but then you need a 400ex swingarm. The front 400ex shocks will fit with a shockmount relocater, they sell them on ebay sometimes.

you can also order custom shocks from elka works or any other shock maker that's what I did

A 350X axle will work just fine if you can get ahold of one.

how much wider is a 350x axle compared to a stock 300ex axle

as for the front end either use the stockers and relocate the mount like everyone else said... or buy a custom set of shocks like i did, the messurements come out to 14 3/4 inches long and then have them set it up for your quad and make sure to tell them ur using a 400 front end and ur weight
