    400ex will not work as you found out. You will need to make some spacers or buy them.

    Bottom line is even when you get the suspension done you will still need to build the motor to keep up with the 2 smokes. If I was on a tight budget and just wanted to go race I would buy the new APEX they are about $2500 new!

    So once you do a Diamond J kit and spend about 10hrs making it work correctly you still have a slow motor.

    None that I am aware of... Diamond J has adapter kit to do that. I never used it.

    The swingarm is a Robbs Racing... There is a guy on ebay ( smblksuper ) selling some swing arm like robbs but I would advise to stay away I had a friend buy one from him and it took 3 months to get it.

    If you use the Diamond J kit just extend your stock swingarm by 2 inches

    There is a Dealer in Bakersfield California that sells them for $2500 It would be a long drive but the weather is nice I did also hear it may drop into the low 80's by the weekend ~ need to bring a jacket

    That is on the other side of the country for me.. it would be cheaper to buy one for 3200 here. I am on the east coast.

    I wouldnt know where to start with extend the axle at this point.. I dont want to risk my sons safety either. I have a 300ex for parts so I would love to be able to use that setup but it amy be cheaper to start with another ATV.. And just go with spacers for now.

    Did you make the sprocket spacer so you could continue to use trx90 sprockets or to get the alignment rite? I designed that set up to use a 450R sprocket hub on the 300ex axle. If you put on the 450R sprocket hub the alignment is perfect.

    Please DO NOT confuse my stuff with that of the scammer on Ebay. He is IMO the lowest of low. At first copying my stuff and trying to sell it as mine. He is a low life POS. I have heard SEVERAL horor stories from people who thought they were buying my parts.

    I purchased this atv used and took it apart cleaned it up and replaced alot of stuff. I will have to try the 450 hub. The old stuff did not have a spacer and I never looked at the chain alignment just assumed it was always off... The biggest problem I ran into was the front end, I had one of my guys take it apart and then he broke his back the next weekend (riding of course) so I had to put the puzzle back together myself.

    I know a guy that went to that guy on Ebay and it took him 3 months to get it... he still has not figured out how to put it together.
