WTB 3rd gen to 4th gen brake conversion kit

A couple years back there was someone selling the front brake conversion kit to run 4th gen brakes on a third gen. It was the hub, cut spindle and the fabricated mounting bracket. Any help would be appreciated.

Re: WTB 3rd gen to 4th gen brake conversion kit

Big brake upgrade sells the kits. Just look them up. You can save some money piecing most of the stuff yourself. I bought the adapters and the hubs from there and was extremely happy. I modified my spindles and bought some rebuilt caliper and rear backing plates on eBay along with rotors and pads. It saved me a good bit of money. I did the front and rear for around 1k. There are good write ups on here about the work. Also on Luke skaff website.
