The longer version, I don't think that he really wants to be bothered selling them. He doesn't like to answer his phone or his texts and won't return calls. The first time that I managed to talk to him, he told me that he had both front and rear disc brake conversion kits, all new bearings, races, seals and everything needed to completely rebuild the axles. It turns out that he only has the conversion for the rear axle. There are no new bearings, races or seals. He refused to ship and I would have to make the 1900 mile round trip to pick them up. I asked if he would sell me just the rear conversion kit and offered him $350 plus $50 for shipping. Nope. He paid $1000 for everything and that's the only way that he would sell it. Oh well. I'll just have to start the search again. Thanks for the heads up on the add. I'll let you know if something else comes up.
