I am thinking of building another 350x/250x conversions. I was gonna build a XR600R in a quad frame,but after further research this project is nowhere near cost effective. So I am going back to Plan B, a simple 350X in a 250X frame.My question is how do I get the most out of the frontend on this machine. I am going to use some sort of +2 A-arms. Can I use a front 250R shock mount set up and use 250R length shocks or no? Please let me know about your ideas. If I am limited to the 250X length shocks I dunno if I'll build it? Thanks! All help greatly appreciated

Hey I might get a 250x Hey i found this kit that converts a 300ex/250x swing arms into 250rs so you get alot more suspention travel So all you have to do it buy good suspention for the 250r and put them on your 250x !

stroker,
I have a friend who built a 500X(an XR500 motor on a 250x frame) and he put trx 250R A-arms on it to get more susupension travel out of the front, and this seams to work great.
Rob, who has those conversion kits?????????
