I think that is a bolt on conversion. You would just need to unbolt this and bolt on a regular front end.

I disagree, i think this belongs in the trikesylvania portion. He is asking how to do something to a three wheeler, Not trying to give a heads up or so forth. The ebay forum is not the place to ask for advice and how to's. Just my .02

Anyone who would convert a trike into a quad should be taken out and kneecapped

I was just reading my New DW mag and they said somewhere( 15 years ago today article), that the old ATC guys would love to get there hands on a trike to quad kit if they were still available..:crazy:

Wrong....:lol:

Man, those things are starting to turn up everywhere it seems. The kits I've seen were welded on....so worst case, you would have to carefully cut some welds down. I would trim right at the weld line as carefully as possible to try and maintain the integrity of the conversion kit. That way you could maybe resell the kit to recover some money.

There probably isn't much else that you could use from that kit. I also think they relocated your stock radiators, so you would want to keep those. But you would need a triple clamp, complete forks, ATC front wheel and hub, brake rotor and I'm assuming the ATC front brake caliper (can't imagine it would have been reused). Then the front fender and headlight assembly.

I would think it would be easier to reverse that stuff than to originally add it on. But you could eat up $500 real quick in the parts you would need.
