Default 300 explorer 4x4,bigger tires?

i have a 96 polaris explorer 300 4x4 with 22 inch tires on the front and 24s on the back. i was wondering what i would have to do to put 25s on all the way around. i know that it is chain driven and didnt know if i would have to re gear it, if so what tooth gears would i have to change to or is it fine with no changes. thanks[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]

I no loner have the the ATV but I believe I changed the rear drive sprocket from a 12 tooth to an 11 and the front outside sprocket(the one closest to you on the throttle side.) from a 21 tooth to a 24 tooth. I am not sure if it works out to be perfect but was close. You will need a longer intermediate chain in the front and you should be able to take up the slack with adjustment in the back. Hope this helps.

I didn't change a thing, my 93 250 4x4 has 25in tires front and rear. I plow and play, remember on demand 4 wheel drive only is locked up when the rears spin faster than the front. Put the tires on and away you go.
Mine also had 22 fronts and 24 rears.

Explorers had 23's on the front, not 22's, and 24's on the rear.
