rear end question

OK Scott it is, I will not make that mistaake again :)
Oh,also with going with the LBP axels,most take the center section blocks out ( ? ),which your have already fallen out.

if I do the LPB axle conversion do they sell all these items in a kit or will I have to try and scroung around trying to find the parts?

If you go to LBP axles and they are the same length as the SBP you will need the thrust buttons in there to set axle end play. If you decide to go with the sealed bearings aka "green bearings" then you would want to leave the thrust buttons out.
