Unhappy Assistance needed

Hi all. I'm having some trouble with choosing some parts from the YZ or WR bikes..

The thing is, I'm sniffing around eBay for a YZ or WR front end.

I've already bought a front brake caliper off a 2004 YZ450 F and still have to buy the front forks, front wheel hub+axle, front brake master cylinder+brake hose.

BUT I'm a little confused about these parts...

I've made a list with the
bike modelxyear model and OEM parts numbers...
And of course the parts numbers change from time to time and here's where the help comes in


Buying all the parts from the same bike model from same year would be the easiest way but.. not the most viable solution (way more expensive)...

SO, a mix from models from several years would be the best way to go.

What I'm asking is, I need help sorting out the parts that are compatible that have different OEM part number, anyone care to help?

Just drop me a line and I'll send you the list I made on Office Excel...

Thanks a lot!!

Vando

For example:

the OEM part number of the 2004 WR450: left fork is 5DH-23120-L0-00, right fork is 5BF-23110-L0-00 , lower triple clamp is 5UP-23340-L0-00 and front brake caliper is 5UN-2580T-00-00.

the OEM part number of the 2002 YZ 125: left fork is 5DH-23120-L0-00, right fork is 5BF-23110-L0-00 , lower triple clamp is 5DH-23340-M0-00 and front brake caliper is 5MV-2580T-00-00.

Both fork legs are the same part number but the lower triple clamps are different and both brake calipers are different part numbers.

So as both fork legs are the same it means that both front brake calipers and both triple clamps are compatible right?


P.S.: the left fork OEM part numbers I said are for the lower legs....

Ebay

Maybe do the same as I generally end up doing on ebay: buy something that "sounds" like it should work/fit, and sell it again on ebay when it doesn't work out correctly!
Simple - sometimes you make a few euros, sometimes you loose a few. Way to go and life is very interesting indeed.
