I bought this Honda TRX 400EX 4wheeler for less than $1000. It was in really bad shape with a rusted frame, poor wiring, wore out brakes, and a lot of old original parts that were simply used up. My plan was to shoot a little spray paint here and there to make it look presentable, but I ended up stripping the 4wheeler down to the bare frame, stripping the paint, repainting, and putting it back together with mostly new, upgraded parts. Give a shout if you have any questions, and I'll try to answer. Also, this 400 allegedly has a big bore 440 kit installed; however, that would've been done before I got it.

Best investment on a TRX is the case saver around the lower sprocket. I bought an excellent condition 300ex and continued to ride it like a hooligan the first time out as all young males do and chain fell off because the rear sprocket was worn and chain blew out the lower case. Talk about flushing $2500 down the tube over a $15 ebay part

I love these quads, I've rode them and owned them. If you decide not to put skid pans across the whole quad out at least suggest putting one on your rear swing arm especially for when you go to the trails, you'll be bashing your Sprocket and your disc brake, and keep an eye on the bearing carrier as well, 👌 ;) she's a beautiful build man

I want to add that the 400ex or 400x is absolutely the best ATV if you don't want the fastest quad but a fast quad that is super reliable and fun. Best option if you have three grand or less. I live in Michigan and when I go up to the dunes half of what you see you up there are Hondas like this some of them even have big bore kits and Run with the 450s no problem. Half the time it's hard to even tell the difference because they have extended rear axles and extended a arms. You have to look at the plastics and headlight to determine what model it is

@swampgumpharpy7977
@swampgumpharpy7977 7 лет назад
CFM Performance claims a 5-degree decrease in temps evident in their test results. The oil cooler shows a decrease in operating temperature of around 20 degrees. I believe that, with the use of the shrouds, oversize oil cooler, and wrapping the headers, I'm probably running around 30 degrees cooler. This estimation is based entirely off of somebody else's test results, and not my own. Thanks for having a look and commenting.

The yellow Pelican box is positioned behind the brake disc, so there isn't any way for it to hit.

ClashOfDragons have a look at my updated video on this EX. Just posted last week. My first upgrade would be new wiring harness. If it has any original wires, or looks like anybody has messed with wiring, have an all new harness installed. This is the best upgrade you can do on an old quad.

Where did you get your shock covers? I haven't been able to find those, a link would be great! And what did you use to wrap your header?
@swampgumpharpy7977
@swampgumpharpy7977 7 лет назад
Search online for an eBay seller named jorpi-bike. His feedback is poor, but I got these shock socks from him, and they are notably better than other sock socks I've tried.

Did you have to drill a hole through the rear frame to mount the CFM air box? I just bought one and it says no mods required... But that doesn't seem true
@swampgumpharpy7977
@swampgumpharpy7977 6 лет назад
Jonathan Presseller, Mine fit without any modifications or drilling.

do you have any pics of how you wired everything when you put the battery box on? Also, on the cmf air scoops. Doesn't that bolt hole go to the flare thats missing on your bike? I thought they just go right in without any modification. you have another hole you drilled through the flare to bolt the scoop on. just curious after watching this video i went and bought some but they don't look like they bolt straight on. did you have to do any shaving to get the top mount to screw on? Thanks and awesome build man!

Late answer, I know, but yes, I did drill holes for the fenders to mount on the shrouds. I had forgotten that.

Maybe I missed it but how and what did you use to paint the motor and what did you use to keep the engine from chipping the paint or making it faded?
@swampgumpharpy7977
@swampgumpharpy7977 4 года назад
I have a new video coming out in a couple of weeks. I'll discuss painting the engine in that video.

So I’m doing a similar build on my kfx400 and I currently have it stripped down to the frame. when you painted your plastics, (not the bed liner part) did you just sand it down, prime it with the self etching primer, spray a couple of coats of the Rust-Oleum paint on it, then put the usc spray max 2k clear coat over it? I’m painting the plastics on it and I just want to make sure I get everything right that way like you said the gas won’t damage the paint if you spill some on it. Thanks
@swampgumpharpy7977
@swampgumpharpy7977 6 лет назад
It’s going to be difficult to find the CARC without going through an industrial coatings rep. A typical paint store won’t have it, and won’t know what it is. I used the etching primer as a base coat against the bare steel of the frame. If I were you I would forego the CARC and use a gloss polysiloxane (like PSX 700 from PPG) over my etching primer. For real, that is a paint that will take an absolute beating. Keep in mind that it’s bloody expensive, and it doesn’t come in anything smaller than a gallon. Don’t use the self-etching primer on your plastics; use a primer that is specifically for plastic. The self etching primer is a two-part epoxy, and it will dry brittle, and crack off your plastics when they flex. Sand the plastics, prime with plastic specific primer, paint with rustoleum enamel, then the clear.

@carsonliby2436 6 лет назад
Thanks for the reply. And just making sure, you used the USC Spraymax 2k high gloss clear on the shiny part of the plastics correct?
@carsonliby2436
@carsonliby2436 6 лет назад
Tank Man sorry for all the questions lol. But did you use the Rustoleum high performance enamel spray paint for this. I just want to make sure I used the same paints, primers and clears you did, on my quad plastics because it seemed to work and hold up for you. Thanks

Awesome ride man. Two questions... where did you find those shock covers and where do you find that high temp tape covering the header. Thanks man, love the build!
@swampgumpharpy7977
@swampgumpharpy7977 6 лет назад
Hey man! Thanks! I found the shock covers on eBay, and the tape can be purchased at any auto parts store. Most of the major chain parts stores keep this tape in stock. The ebay seller is jorpi-bike. These socks are far superior in quality to any others I've used.
