Yes, I found that site too. I called and spoke with them and will give it a try. I have installed the Peavey replacement baskets in the past, so I don't think it will be that hard. Now I glad that I did not trash it.

Thanks again cclark65
 
This isn't quite the same as replacing the magnet on a Peavey. This will require you to cut the old paper out, clean the frame and gap, then install the new one, center with the shims provided, and glue it down. Make sure the leads are on the side facing the terminals!

it's not hard, just take your time and you'll get good results. I would start cleaning up that frame now so that your ready to go when the kit arrives. You can find instructions on the net, or let me know if you want the details. Just be sure to cover the voice coil gap with tape to keep stuff from going in there.
 
Thanks cclark,

Already did all that. I have a friend that used to run a reconing shop and have watched him do it serveral times. That site you found, their kits come with everything. (glue,shims). Thanks again
 
yup, you should have good results with it. I installed a few of those exact kits in some frames last spring and they were fine. I am pretty sure these kits are assembled at the Eminence factory, so they drop right in perfectly and work right.

Let us know your outcome, but I'm sure it'll be fine :)
 
My recone kit came in and here are some photos of the project. Speaker turned out great.
