Early and Late 200X Interchanges

[ATCR250R]

Hey everyone, I have a couple things I would like to know if they swap with the old and new 200X's. First thing is will the axle swap? Also the rear disk and the sprocket assembly. If the axle doent interchange will the hubs swap from 86 to 83-85? I think thats all for now. Thanks. :beer

i know that the hubs from the 86 87 will work on the 83 84 85. And they will give you added width ( about 2 inches total)

Thats pretty cool. I heard that but didnt know whether to believe it or not since it was describing an item on ebay. The reason I ask about the axle is someone welded the locknut on with booger welds. Is there any other way to fix it?
