[Spridgets] rear disc brake conversion

[weslakemonza1330 at aol.com]

Your hope would be in vain because it is the seal between the hub oil seal  
and the axle casing, rather than any part of the brakes, that retain the 
axle  seal.  If you have a rear axle oil leak at the hub and you've changed 
the  hub oil seal and still have a leak (and it's not from the O ring and 
gasket) the  solution is a speedy sleeve.  I think it was one of the Larry's 
from the  list that put onto the speedy sleeve.

Hopefully the conversion would result in a better seal  (less prone to
leaks) at the hub/axle too.
