here is my 2 cents... as far as price goes I called a couple of salvage yards, and looked on craigslist, from a salvage they wanted 750-900 for one, I found 2 on CL 500 for one 700 for the other. I am not sure what a aftermarket rear disc setup would cost so i am guessing 500 or more + the time and labor to install it. I really don't know much about this setup, But if they work OK and I wanted disc I would go for it PROVIDED the gear ratio is the same or close to mine or what I wanted. I do understand your predicament ( I have 9 axles) stacked next to my garage. LOL so if ya want disc and this will do it for ya then get it, there are lots of these out there Coop
