How difficult is it to put a 350x/250r conplete front end on a 250sx, I want to do it to mine. Are the "Tripple Tree" areas the same dimensions? Anyone who has done this plz give me a hand. Thanks ahead of time.
Later-- :cool:

Any of the 200X, 350X or 250R front ends when using there triple clamps will bolt right on. The 250R ends up too high and I believe not a good conversion. The 200X is the popular conversion, I believe the 350X is a bit wider and may be higher like the 250R but I am not positive.

200X forks slide right into the SX triples but you will lose the front brake setup and have to make spacers for the axle and hub to work.

Stock SX triples are weak and should be swapped anyhow. 200X or other triples give you double bolts on each triple.

When I did mine I just put everything from the X front end on my sx, brakes, front tire and all. It bolted right up. almost like it was OEM. sure makes the trike ride alot nicer too.
