    Hello

    I bought an incomplete gearbox from a wr360
    I have only the parts on the picture.
    Can someone tell me what I need more to make my wr250 six speed.
    I have a 2009 wr250

    Thats not incomplete!
    Think there is one or two shims on the primary shaft but thats all you need!

    You need the shift selector and the little tensioner for the selector as well as the little pieces for mounting the tensioner.

    I guess I should say that 14 48 was stock on the 250 6 speed motors. Different ratios, different gearing.

    Juicy is right! I'm pretty sure you have everything you need! A few beers & some late nights in the shed! Better get cracking! It's a sweet upgrade over the 5 speed!

    I Purchased my WR300 with the WR360 6 speed gearbox installed-night and day difference if I compare it to my WR250!.. How can they market the standard close ratio gearbox as a 'WR'?.

    We are building it together but I also needed the wr360 shift pedal axel. It has a different shift mechanism.
    Now it can work.
    Maybe newer wr360 do also have the newer shift meganism like the 2010 wr models.

    Well aslong as you got it too work thats the main point!
    Having owned a 99 250 and still own a 02 360 those shift mecs were the same as far as i could remember.

    Husky changed the shift mechanism in 2002 on the CR 250 and 2004 on the WR 250. The 360 used the old style until the end. The old style also had 2 versions with the shift star on the end of the shift drum being large or small and of course the shift shaft to match. Hope this helps.
