What is exactly involved in "hybridding" k03s?Where can you buy the internals/wheels needed?

Curious as to whether or not I will be hybridding or k04ing... What is the most aggressive setup for the k03 housing? I know the two are similar, but what parts would be needed to be swapped out, and where could I purchase such!?

TIA

Re: What all has happened?

I know one installer that has had to replace half of the hybrids they installed. Thats proof enough for me. Just my humble opinion btw.

I'd Like to make this a large project and attempt myself. Jacob is way slow answering mail...

Any info on what parts would be needed/where to buy would be awesome!

exactly, assembling the housings and stuff is easy, but

when it comes to putting a different wheel onto the shaft and cutting the housings to fit bigger wheels you should leave that to the guys with the proper equipment

otherwise its a good way to waste money
