Hey all, Ive been searching for a couple hours and think I pretty well figured out what I wanted to know I'd just like soem one to back me up on this.

Before I begin. I have another Big Red that I picked up for 50 bucks, It has a better frame, engine and front forks than my current rider, But has no swing arm, fenders or wheels. The plan was to swap over my stuff to this one to get her mobile, including the swing arm. In the meantime I found trx250 rear diff and swing arm and figured instead of pulling everything off my current one I'll just put this one on, Saving me some work by not ripping parts off but just installing them.
If I had the parts in front of me im sure I could figure out what I want to know but I dont so ..... :wondering

Near as I can tell I will have no problem with the trx diff itself but the swing arm mounts are on the outside of the trx & sx frame and the bigred swing arm mount are on the out side, It that so?

If it is then I'm screwed there.

Now I do have the main part of the swing arm from the big red that is apart, but no axle tubes or differential section. would the trx tubes bolt onto my swing arm?
I'd be getting the axles too so I'm not worried there.

Thanks Twilight. I didnt find that thread last night. It tells me just what I wanted to know. The TRX swinger fits the SX but not the BigRed. Damn wish I had an SX right now or that it was the other way around.

Thanks again
