front end swap

[dman10]

Would it be possible to swap my 82' 200 front end for a big Red front end? Anything that would be a problem?
Thanks,
Daniel

you can use the 83 185s front end or a 200s front end, suspended and they are bolt on. first gen big red front are junk, and 2nd gen are not direct bolt on.

ok, I'll have to look into that.

The 200S front end, with the aluminum bottoms, are probably the best of the old-new style suspensioned fronts IMO. I've had the pleasure of trying out both. My 84 200ES had the steel bottomed forks and dude they were TERRIBLE. I'm not even joking they were worse than a rigid front end. And the 200 big body I have has the 200S front end with the aluminum bottoms and that's actually a really nice ride and they aren't seized or anything!!
