If they are too wide you'll have to grind them down to fit. If they're to narrow, you'll have to rig up some spacers.

You just need to use the 250x bushings in the R a arms and they'll fit.

The X bushings will work... You will also have to relocate the upper shock mounts to do this mod. unless you plan on measuring the length of shock that you need and buying some for another quad that qre the correct length for the setup. The R shocks will be a little too long and raise the front of the quad almost 2 inches. Your stock shocks will be a little too short.
You will be a lot better off relocating the upper mounts and getting the longer travel.

Guys.....I've said this before and I'll say it again. Mixing up a-arms is a very bad idea. The geometery is different from bike to bike and will make your quad handle worse!

Some arms you just need to use the X bushings, and some arms you need to gring down the bushings to fit. Either way it is not big deal to make them fit.

This X has a custom adjustable front a rear lowering kit so that it has the abiltiy to be flat tracked or scrambled. The adjustment can be made in less than 5 min, with 2 wrenches.

I say if you have the a arms go ahead and do it, if you don't like it switch back! I personally like it on my X.
