How did you make out with the disk brake upgrade? I'm doing research right now. My son rides the heck out of his pred. 90 and the only thing holding him back is the lousy drums. Thanks.

I just put an eton rear end in mine so i could have disc brakes.

You swapped out the axle, carrier bearing and all ness. brackets? Foot or hand brake? Thanks for any help and advice.

I took the carrier, brake assy, axle and all and just bolted it on my predator swingarm.

The etons use a hand brake although it wouldnt be too hard to get a foot brake working on it.

If you desire a foot brake, use the DRR kit to upgrade it. Eton or DRR rear axle with hubs and disc brake both work fine. But neither one fit without swapping the carrier and axles w/hubs.

All of the carriers will bolt into the polaris swing arm.

Wow, thanks alot guys! Soon, my son won't be nervous about going down big hills on the trail. Can you reccomend any websites to purchase the needed parts. Thanks again.

For the footbrake check out www.g-forcepowerports.com

For the eton rear end your best bet is to keep checking ebay until one shows up and ask the seller to sell you a whole unit. Buying the pieces new will be pricey. There are lots of old etons around so if you look hard enough you should be able to find something for a reasonable price. Maybe even try an ad in the classified section of this forum to see if any of the guys here have one.
