    trx250 to 250es motor swap

    I have a 250es that I picked up for next to nothing. Something is broken inside the trans. Decent shape body. Yesterday picked up a running trx250 with bad rear. Will the trx engine be a direct swap into the 250es?

    Don't quote me, but I believe there is a difference in the final drive/drive shafts....

    Nevermind my previous thoughts... I was thinking of the trx300/BR conversion...
