No, on the seat latch I tried it.I have both trx and atc's and the bolt paterns and the pin areas are way off.You could make your own seat latch though,not real hard.Flat aluminum plate,some stainless pins for the frame area and drill the correct mounting plate holes to bolt to the seat and fender.My 85 has a quick pin latch that was custom made for it.

I have put a TRX silencer on the Atc,but you have to make your own frame mounting brackets.They dont line up correctly,so you have to make some holders to bolt it to the frame.You will also have to use longer bolts and add some spacers to the silencer mounts,as the trx silencer tube is bent different than the atc.

All trx 250r rear hubs should fit the 85-86 atc axle.Maybe you had a 400ex axle in your 250r trx?

But 300ex 400ex hubs will not fit 250r axles.

cool thanks man, i think ill try making a seat latch, never thought of that.

im not sure what axle it had, but those same hubs have been on 3 other 250r's & 200x, when i try to put it on this 250r its like there tosmall i even tryed hiting them with rubber mallet but nothing...

That is wierd on the axle hubs man.I dont know what is going on there.

If you need a pic of how I did my seat latch,let me know.
I used the stock plate,then a buddy made me stainless seat pins and drilled them out for the quick pins.It still latches the same as stock,but it also has the back up pins too.It wont fly off.
But My latch plate was pretty solid yet.I know those things get pretty flimsy after a while,so maybe one from scratch is the best way to go.
