Everything needed for a live axle conversion?

[xiodinc]

I was wondering what parts i need for a 1wd conversion to live would be.

I'd like to know every single part i need to make the conversion.

Thanks.

Axle,
New wheel hubs and possibly new wheels
Bearings
Sprocket carrier
New sprocket if it is not usable on your carrier
Probably new brakes
Oh and some keystock

Do a search on the forum for live axle conversions. I think dave did one. Here is the link. You could maybe pm him as well.

Yeah ive been looking around at all those conversions...

I found an axle for -- 20
2 rear wheels/hubs - 35
pillow blocks -- 20
sprocket holder -- 15
keystock -- 5
Sprocket -- 15

Still dont know if i should get disc or drum or stick with my band brake

So this conversion costs a little over 100, sheeshm not including a new brake.

An axle for $15 and a brake rotor for $4.
I found bmi to be very reasonable.
