Nada , I take it you have found a Dr 400 frame ....if so read thru DRM postings
Rear was a Rm graft plus Rm swing arm ....not off the same model bike.
EML PE 250 -400 forks are a straight swap into a Dr 500

Pe triples are the way to go . Or even a set of Rm 125 -250 years 79 -80 ( 38mm fork) will do
and just change over steering stem
