Is there anything better about a lonestar 250r chassis than the stock 250r chassis? Thanx.

Basically, every aftermarket frame is going to be somewhat lighter and stronger than stock. Maybe some more than others. I think most, if not all will have different shock lengths, and will require longer shocks. The frames are also 1" narrower in the front than stock frames. So, if you have +3" a-arms on an aftermarket frame, it will be the same width as a stock frame with +2" a-arms. Hope I helped some.

The aftermarket chassis are indeed better. Remember that most of the 250R's are 12 to 16 years old. Technology has come a long way. As far as being narrower, it depends on how you order your chassis.
