Default Blaster to Banshee Brake Conversion!!

Once again its a dreaded blaster brake problem. I have a 2002 blaster, should have waited 1 more year, that has its issues when it goes in mud. First of all if anyone has converted to hydro's using Banshee parts on the front end, I need your help. I need to know what all to buy to do this and if the stock blaster tires will even bolt onto the banshee hubs. I'm planning on playing it out on ebay and buying pc by pc until I get everything I need, I just need to know what all parts I will need to complete this. Also how well do the grooved brakes work for the front for the current drums. Are they worth buying until I get the complete blaster/banshee front brake system complete??
Thanks a ton!!

In the early days when i first started racing mx i started out on blasters. I had 6 of them and have done banshee brake conversions. They arnt hard to do. the only thing is you need the banshee parts to do it.

Okay..I have found alot of articles on how the banshee parts work on the Blaster. However I have found sites that say you need to make your own brackets for the spindles to work..and found some that say to just get the banshee spindles and they will bolt onto a Blaster A-arm. Does anyone know any more about this? Your help would be greatly appreciated...
Thanks!!

all you should need is the 2003 blaster spindles, the ball joints are the same as the older blasters, and the calipers should fit on there from other quads, i think raptor warrior and banshee uses similar parts and the wheels will fit on the hubs
banshee spindles do not work unless you buy new a arms
i have grooved pads and i dont think they make much difference the grooves are always get filled in
