How much should disc conversion cost?
Solitude 7K axles but will convert to 9/16 lugs. Plan to have my local shop do parts and installation.
Thanks!If You are Lucky ... You are Lucky Enough

I went with the Performance Trailer kit and the 9/16 lugs: $2,249.00. Had the son of the new owners do the install for $1000.
I'd think twice about having your local shop do the install. The plumbing and attaching hydraulic lines to the frame and crossing a line under the trailer, and wiring from the actuator into the front storage compartment and into the pin box -- is tedious and time consuming. This installer has done over a hundred installs, and I sat with him for 8 hours. Believe me when I say he was efficient and fast. He knew exactly what to do, and he had all the tools and parts to do the job. $1000 for 8 hours is $125 an hour: really cheap shop rate these days.

If you were to take your rig to MORryde in Elkhart, the disc brake installation would be $3,199 total (parts and labor) for two axles and $4,299 for three axles.
