You got me on that one , I have never read or heard anything about the 250SX rear end as a donor , I just looked at the parts list , first thing that could be rectified with some extra work is the swing arm on that one is welded to the right side axle tube like a 85 TRX250A and a 85 ATC250ES , both of those rear ends are doable , but you need to cut the swing arm off the tube -----but when you go to individual parts for the 250SX rear end , there are not many parts that show interchange with the other model andrear ends that will work , don't know why that is , the ring and pinion comes up for the one year and model 85 ATC250SX as does the axle and the housings also -----
