KX Full Front End for KDX220 97

Post by Byte »

I read that the KX front end is a desired for the KDX.

What is involved to install a full KX front end (forks, t-clamps, wheel & hub)?

Part numbers, procedure, etc.

Because all you need to do is swap the stem and it's bolt on from there....

Anything 96 and up is desired....

Dude... look around the site... Google images of KX's and then KDX's... Read the Fork Conversion Forum... look around a bit.

Part numbers are kind of a moot point. It would cost you a couple thosand dollars if you bought this stuff new... go by year.
