I never thought about converting to single speed that way but its a good idea. If you can spare the cost, the single speed conversion kit is nice because its got an aluminum shaft and reduces the weight.

The black output gears don't quite have enough material on them to use to mount to my diff plate. I needed a gear with some meat on its bones ;)
My new gear is heafty enough to handle the job.
I will also use a stiffer diff fluid (50,000 wt).
I'm not in a hurry this time so I'm going to take my time and get it right.
