I have a 03 with Traxxon fork up grades and I wont to put them on my 05, will they match up beings that the 05 has bigger rotors?

 
Nope. Don't believe so. The brakes will not line up. You would need an 03 rim and brakes to go with it.

It looks like the inner tube and internal parts are the same, so you may be able to swap the Traxxion parts to the '05.

 
Geezer has the right idea. Swap internals and while you're at it, have Traxxion freshen up the bushings and seals too.

Good luck!

Caliper mounts are different on the '03 compared to later bikes, to accommodate the larger rotors. I don't think there are any internal differences, so putting the good stuff into the '05 forks is probably a plan.

 
Glad I asked, thanks for the info I guess I'll be mailing the forks off to Traxxon for a Swap of internals.
