Thinking about doing the kx500 front fork swap and have a few questions.

What year should I get for the kx 500 fork swap? As far as I know I need the whole front setup. Forks, brakes, caliper, and the wheel and hub. Do I need anything else?

Brake caliper will swap over, you need the trees, forks, wheel and axle for this conversion.

just did this with 2000 kx500 forks trees and axle with a 2001 kx 250 wheel and 08 rm 250 fork guards

How do the kx500 forks do on the trails?

Motocross forks on a trail bike often benefit from a revalve.

If the forks are longer than the stock forks, then one has to pull them up in the clamps and deal with any problems that causes. Otherwise, the KDX geometry is thrown off. It is not a true chopper, but hopefully, you get the idea. Travel limiting spacers would help. It is my opinion that it is the way to go on longer KX forks.

mine came revalved for woods riding for a 180lbs rider from ZR1 Suspension all done by the previous owner
