Just so you know, I have disc brake setup for the small bearing housing and they make 31 spline axles for them. If you are spending all the money for brakes, carrier and axles you may as well up grade the housing also. Axle ends are not that easy to replace correctly and even if you do you still have the weaker housing. All the new housings are make more on the lines as the 77 housing.
Also the mid. housing with the 3.15 bearing is still a big bearing, the bolt pattern is 3.58x2 for the new big bearing and 3.5x3.375 for the old big bearing but both use the same size bearing. The 77 is the only EB that had the stronger "foot ball" shaped housing
