so I go to change the rear shoes, bearings and seals in my boy`s `84 ATC 200S
of course I used a puler and SURE ENOUGH, I broke the drum into pieces leaving the steel splined inner still siezed to the axle
as this part appears to be discontinued (of course), I need a used one
and since most apparently get siezed up and subsequently busted into pieces like mine did, there seems to be a shortage of used ones around
so which models/years of Honda ATCs rear drums were interchangeable so I have a broader range to look for a replacement used one?
if I hadn`t bought all new shoes front and rear and all new bearings and seals front and rear and new levers and perches and cables, I would just throw the motor in a 200x frame and say farewell to the "Drumbrake Blues"..........but I`d hate to throw $150 worth of new parts back up on the shelf for nothing
the other alternative would be if the splinage between 200s and 200x (same year axles) were the same as was the distance between the inside of the rotor carrier and the bearing inner race.....in that case I would throw this 200x rotor on the axle and fab a mount for this caliper and convert the rear to disc (with parts I already have laying around taking up space for free)
