OK,

my brother and now my brother inlaw and I all have a TRX250X

we picked up, not having alot of money to sink in them

what are some suggesttions?

like ive heard that 400ex front A arms will work on them but do you have to lengthen your tie rods?

some cheap mods? what carb to possibly upgrade to? ETC.

We have always built up cheaply since noi real budgets but i love riding so i want to keep up

better and have a better ride also

hell i out a 400EX rear shock on my old blaster it was amazing how much better it rode.

anyways anything would be great thanks.

The 400ex arms may fit, the only way to make sure is just measure both and see. The 400ex a-arms measure about 6 inches from the inner sides top and bottom, and about 9 1/8 in to the outer sides on top and 9 1/2 in on the bottom. If they do fit, they will be wider, so it would be best to use the tie rods of the 400 too. If they fit, the shocks will be too soft for the wider arms so you will want to do something about that. I would think that the 400ex shocks would be a bit long, but they may work. I would not bother with a carb upgrade before some other motor mods are done. First thing to do is find yourself a good exhuast, if you need to keep it super cheap, check ebay for some decent used pipes. A high flow intake, and modified airbox lid are cheap and easy. Just remember, with each upgrade, a jetting change is likely going to be needed.

      Looking for two stock front wheels for 92 TRX300 2WD.   I think they are 6 x11" size.

      I recently noticed my Fourtrax 2WD has 4WD wheels installed on the front.  The back spacing is significantly different than 2WD wheels and they are almost touching the strut springs and the tires actually do touch the springs..   So far, no luck locating 2WD wheels to correct this issue.

      Hi, I am new to this forum I am currently working on my 1989 Yamaha front end.  The cv axles were bad so I changed them on both sides with all new wheel bearings. Now I'm looking at the front brakes and the 2 cylinders for the brake shoes on both sides do not work at all. I am also new at working on brakes so its a mystery to me what needs to be done to fix the cylinders.  Can somebody please help me with these brake issues? See the image below.
      Thank you,
      Olchap

      Recently rebuilt front end on this Polaris 400. New axles, bearings, seals, control arm bushings, Hilliard clutch thoroughly cleaned and inspected with no damage noted. 
      Everything put back to together. Placed bike on jack stands all four wheels off the ground, started in 2 WD switched to AWD both front tires spinning, when AWD turned
      off right front wheel will not disengage from AWD. Checked voltage at connectors both left and right connectors have no voltage with AWD switch off, and both have 12.4V
      when AWD switch is turned on. Repeated turning switch on and off several times with no change in condition. I am thinking this must be something mechanical with the 
      Hilliard clutch on the right hub ie. weak spring or stuck rollers on the Hilliard clutch assembly (Is this a logical thought?) any ideas on trouble shooting this before I disassemble the 
      right front hub again
