    Get the xr 400 cam, it is a straight drop in cam and you will not have to worry about your rockers. I have the TCS shocks and like them. Also if you want a good set of a-arms consider Houser Racing, they have grease zerks, ask anyone on this site, they are top of the line a-arms.

    I agree about the LSR arms. I've HAD them on my 400, they are terible. Go with Houser, they rock. And yes they have greese zerks. Also if your setting up for MX you want pre-load. This lowers your center of gravity so you can trun on a dime, but still alowes for full wheel travel. LSR axles are good, but dominator axles are a little better. Do not get a Durabreak. Been there broke that...still haven't broke my Dominator. One last thing Houser makes a better stem than LSR.

    Just get the +2 arms and axle, and keep your stock stuff, and then when you run a Hare Scramble, you can put the stock stuff back on and vice versa for MX.
    I also agree that you need a cam, and would stay away from the WB cam. One of my friends has this in his 416 and he has gone through 3 of them when they clipped his valves or something like that. 3 cams, rockers and new valves, not real cheap, I would get the XR cam, you will notice a good power gain with it!

    For mx you want no pre load, hence zero preload.
