Will the A arms, shocks, tie rods, and rear shock off an 87 Trx250x bolt up to a 04 Recon? Im doing this so i can have disc brakes on the front.

I measured and everything looks like it will JW if anyone has done this or knows.

The a-arms will most likely not fit, but the newer honda 250ex a-arms should, and they use a disk set-up in the front.

I was going to swap the newer model 250ex front disc set up on my girls 2 recons but I would have to get new front wheels because they have different lug patterns
