I agree with the previous post. The full floater would be the last thing i would do. I did it last with my truck. I had all the exrtra parts on hand, so no expense about the cost of the coversion. I ran my stock rear brakes until they litterally seized up from mud and grit.( about 3 years) I live in NC, so their is plenty of wet weather. The only advantages to the floater is the ability to run locking hubs on the rear, if you choose to do so, (I broke hub splines in twice on the rear) and now run flanges, and you can also pull a broken axle and keep moving along.
