i was just wondering if there were alot of things from the 450r that fit a 400ex, like suspension?? because thats something i like about my blaster. since im getting a 400ex is there alto of parts stock on 450rs that fit the 400ex? thanks.

 

you can get front shocks to work pretty easy. i think their chains are the same, and also their front bumper. dont know about anything else though sorry

 

Heres some of the stuff i know will swap.

Front and rear shocks
a arms(opppsss no they dont oh well!)
rims and tires


Im sure there is alot of other stuff that will work. u would have to find a way to compare or match up parts.

 

Are you Positive the A-arms will fit? Not doubting you but I don't want to buy a pair on ebay and not have them fit. Thanks. Also does anyone know how much width they add?

 

well if u can swap the shocks im sure the a arms are the same. since 400ex and 450r shocks use the same size bolts and are the same length. im willing to bet they are the same width as 400ex a arms. ur better off just gettin some wider a arms off of ebay. theres a ton of em there. Honda loves to use and reuse parts over and over and over. saves them money. less new parts to develop is a good thing.

For you 250x and 300ex owners if u put 400ex a arms on your machine it gives you a total of 2inches wider stance.(inch each side) Just dont forget youll need 400ex tie rods as well! Might need 400ex brakelines as well.

 

Actually after lookin a pics on ebay at stock 400ex and 450r a arms it appears that 450r a arms are a lil bit wider. maybe an inch more or so than 400ex a arms. Im pretty sure they will bolt right on though.

 

I have both A arms in the garage. They have a different gap between the 2 mounts. They will not swap. I need 400 a arms and don't have a set in my 450.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

 

cool, atleast the shocks are compatable. how much better are the 450r shocks over the 400ex's? and all 3 are piggyback right?

 

That is correct all 3 are piggyback and are fully adjustable.

 

sweet... anything else?
