http://www.minisport.com/acatalog/info_SUSCKIT04.html. This link does not work.

I would have thought you would want to replace the donuts as well. They get knackered with age and the rubber deteriorates. I had good ones in the back so moved them to the front and then got some rover ones second hand from brickworks. They are in great condition and really cheap as used.

That Karcraft price above IS for a full bolt-on disc setup. All you keep are the old driveshafts...

Pretty cheap really, some people here have bought old 7.5" disc setups and reconditioned them, it cost them more than this. :lol:
